Like all Cockatoos,the Gang Gang is cheeky and gregarious.
Once half-a-dozen of them were sitting in a favourite tree of mine,stripping its young shoots.They were quite close to me as I jumped up and down,waving my arms and yelling to get rid of them.But they didnt move,and casually regarded me,between mouthfulls,as a sort of resident entertainment.

I see these birds,not all year but usually in Summer.A pair come to drink at my garden bird-bath just before night-fall after a hot summers day.

They love eating the seeds and seed pods high up in trees; making small but abrasive 'ehhr' noises as they eat and dropping twigs and seed pods on your head as you walk under the tree.
