Description If I am recalling correctly, I'm pretty sure this is a Lesser Sulpher Crested Cockatoo.

First time I've ever seen one in real life actually. We have plenty of the wild Greater toos flying near the house, not the Lesser (I don't think the Lesser too is even Aussie?).

Jurong Bird Park, Singapore

Yep they are from Indonesia (the lessers). That is what you have there, and they make wonderful pets. Much quieter than normal Umbrella or Moluccan cockatoos. Very very affectionate!

I mean Greater Sulphur Crested, sorry. Wait, did I already correct myself? I feel silly now...

It's adorable. I love watching birds try and scratch their heads. :3 They always look so cute trying to reach their heads. :3

Thanks for the fav on "I Falled".

Cockatoo! Man, I miss my Cockatoo. I had a Maluccan once. Cockatoos are such affectionate birds.

Aww. >: I've heard that some cockatoos would rather be surgically sewn onto you they are so affectionate. XD And I've also seen the opposite... cockatoos that try to kill their owners.

Mine was the affectionate kind to its owners...the killer kind to everyone else. Haha.

Aw, I had a bird like this before. Good capture of it, it's always so cute to see them preen themselves.
