Female Gang-gang Cockatoo.

Again, not a perfect image, but, I have waited a long time to shoot Gang-gangs. Every time I look at this I smile a happy smile and the words of the Stevie Wonder song 'Isn't She Lovely' spring into my head :floating:

Gang-gangs are just so beautiful, and this shot just shows the subtle beauty the females have.
Thanks for sharing~!

I so agree with you about Gang-gangs and the subtle veauty of the female. How amazing are the salmon pick tips of her chest feathers? :faint: :D

It's something alot of photographs don't pick up, those lovely salmon tips. Which is a real shame. Somehow I think female gang-gangs are prettier than the males.

Takes me back to my childhood days when a friend (who's parents had the appropriate license)had a pair of these in an aviary.

My notoriety precedes me only because those that love me choose to make it so.

She is lovely.....Great shot imo!! Love the background compliments her quite well. The composition is very pleasing to the eye no complaints here so you need to remove the "Again, not a perfect image" comment ;)

awww another one! :heart: and she fits her background so well too - no wonder they're hard to find.
:aww: I love the ruffled look of her head feathers.
