Galah (Cacatua roseicapilla) (1) I spotted this bird several times in this area. Once foraging on the ground with another galah which highlighted it’s bright red colour at the time. Unable to get a photograph then. This time I came upon the same bird foraging on the ground again. I startled it and it flew up directly above my head into a tree. Sat there for a few minutes enabling me to get these pictures.
