User's notes

A family of three, with female juvenile. They remained around the same area from early in the morning to late afternoon. After drinking at the dam, the family settled on a branch, with the young female begging insistently until she was fed, first by dad, then mum (not witnessed, but the juvenile was close to mum, with mum moving her jaw which I suspect was post feeding). Great glossy count weekend. These are three of eight (!!) glossy black cockatoos that spent the day feeding in a small area.
