User's notes
A female Gang-gang Cockatoo came to drink at the bird bath in our back yard. She was initially up in a Yellow Box eucalyptus in the back garden. She had a few drinks before she walked around the lip of the bird bath and flew back into the Yellow Box. She only stayed in the tree for a short while before flying off. It was only when she flew off, with another Gang-gang beside her that I realised there had been a second Gang-gang in the tree, although I could not see what sex it was.
