Red-tailed Black Cockatoos

It was a pleasant surprise to come across a flock of these cockatoos near the road. Thankfully they stayed when we stopped and didn't go far when they took off as I took this image. See PiPs for later images. They have helmet-like crests, males have the red tail panels, the females have small yellow spots and black barred yelllow-orange on the tail feathers.
