This is the time of year I love photographing the cockatoos. They are a hard subject with the white - if it is sunny they can bleach out, dull and they blend in. I will keep practising. Am now on Flickr but have not worked out how to get the photos over to BIB - anyone got any clues - Diane
Hi Di, if you look at posts (link below) from about 48 onwards, the might be some help using Flickr. Nice photos, and good luck with Flickr, so long as your not using internet explorer 11, there seems to stil be some issue with that 1.

These are beautiful flight shots Diane, love the splayed feet in the first shot. Cockatoos & Galahs especially, are such entertaining subjects aren't they? I could watch their antics for hours. Oh I am right there with you with photographing white birds, I am still hit & miss with those
, but practising too (luckily I do love to practice)
