Glossy Black Cockatoo female with partner

Nestled in the she-oak. Walking through the bush you can hear them cruncing on the nuts.
Glossy Black-cockatoos feed almost exclusively on the seeds of Allocasuarina species. They use their strong bill to extract seeds by crushing cones held in their claws. Occasionally they may eat insect larvae and have been observed feeding on seeds from some eucalypts, angophoras, acacias and hakeas.
