Quoting Mark C <pdml-m...@charter.net>:
Nice shot.... What kind of birds? Red headed house hunters?
Catchy name!
They're Galahs - a medium sized cockatoo and very common. They're
expanded their range since European settlement.
Interestingly, the term "galah" is a somewhat derogatory term when
applied to humans - as in "you stupid galah" when someone does
something idiotic. It's usually expressed in a joking manner and is
rarely regarded as an offensive term.
Cheers
Brian
