The fact that they are still found largely in Australia shows that they are not migratory birds that migrate to other regions or places. Forest degradation and climate change affect their habitat since they prefer cool weather for settlement. ![]() The Gang cockatoo (Callocephalon fimbriatum) has an important role in dispersing and distributing seeds from various plants that they consume as their daily diet. Long-distance flight takes place at a great height which ends with twisting and turning while spiraling towards the ground. These bird species have slow wing beats and their flight is owl-like. These bird species are arboreal and are seen on the ground only when they want to drink water or pick fallen seeds or pine cones on the ground. They highly prefer nesting on tall, great trees with great height. Gang cockatoos are a distinctive and charismatic Australian bird, with feathers that have pinkish edges on the underbelly. There are different species of cockatoo with different colors, from white, yellow to bright red, and wispy crest. They typically move to higher altitudes during summer, and during winter, return to lower ranges.

New Scientist magazine, in 2009, reported that gang-gangs are 100% left biased, while some other parrot species are right-biased, and the remainder are ambidextrous. I took this image recently, and it supports the left-footed theory, as do all my gang-gangs images – how fascinating! Did you know that Gang-gang Cockatoos are left-handed, or should I say ‘footed’, and that this could be linked to intelligence?Ĭanon 5DIII, f/5.6, ISO 1600, focal length 400mm ![]()
