Apologies for the banter Cuppa mate, let's call these last few posts educational from us blokes above. I too overheard European backbackers wanting to wildlife picture a proud Cassawary mother out there, 3rd largest bird yet most aggressive near Raptor claw are they :-( ?

1. 'George' was a King Parrot who visited us daily for several months each year over 5 years. Since we moved he now visits our nearest neighbours. I could get him on my hand, & to fly across the garden & land on my hat. Usually he would hang around for a couple of hours at a time & follow me around. Occasionally he would bring his partner ('Mildred') & one year a youngster, but they were never as 'tame' as George.
