Trying again, hopefully with working video this time.

A short clip of the large yellow tailed black cockatoo that was outside my bedroom window today. One of my favourite birds, and not a newcomer to the area, unlike the destructive white sulphur crested cockatoos. Their favourite food is banksia serrata cones, which is the tree it's sitting in. You can see a cone to the right of frame.

Hear its distinctive call at this link:
