Jeff,congratulations on your POTD of the Australian Black Cockatoo. I don't know if this range of cockies actually speak like the white ones do. They live in our back yard, very noisy and destructive! They bite all the fruit off the trees before they get a chance to ripen! #11414616Deborah Lewinson December 22, 2015
