Sulphur Crested Cockatoo

Here's my first attempt at these birds using my new 100-400L :) Though I still think I need more reach since these birds were very high up. The 5D enabled me to crop and not lose too much resolution.

They were pulling this tree apart with their beaks lol

Though not really sharp I still think it's not a bad action shot.

Not great framing resulted in this crop, still worth keeping :)

Thanks buddy, yeah I'm pretty happy with them considering. I'm finding bird photography a lot of fun but at the same time very challenging :p:rolleyes::cool:

Cool to see wild individuals of this species...very popular in pet shops here. I like your timing in the last shot.
