I can definitely see how this Cockatoo got its name. Love the detail on the breast feathers & the composition is perfect. Excellent capture, Jim.

Jimbob, these birds you have captured at the zoo, did you use a tripod? A monopod? What lens? You detail is extraordinary!

Jimbob - I am imagining a curmudgeonly old man as I look at this cockatoo, muttering to himself about the ill-fates of life as he sees them. You got excellent clarity of Jeff Dunham's Walter. ;-) Thad

Jimbob, after reading all the above comments, what can I add more than just to say: "I agree with the most of them?"

I'll keep my gun powder dry for the next time, mate, lol.

Regards, Cornelius.

Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
