User's notes
Encountered a large flock of Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo near the 2nd dam on Blue Metal Road (35+ individuals), including a single birds that was completely yellow - which has been reported by others around Canberra. The birds were incredibly noisy and it is very difficult to capture the atmosphere through photos alone- so there is a sound file attached for you to listen to.
