Bird World

Fun trip to Ballarat Bird World.

Paul, the 90-yr-old owner of Bird World, with a red-tailed black cockatoo:

Wooden walkways, and this artificial waterfall feature, all built by Paul over the last 40 years:

Very talkative Major Mitchell cockatoo:
This bird lived with a family and learnt a lot of expressions beyond just "Hello cocky". When he outlived the humans he came to live at the park.

Beautiful red-winged parrot in the large walk-through aviary:



Someone with a red-tailed black cockatoo on her shoulder:

Same bird, different shoulder:
