MAJOR MITCHELL'S COCKATOO
(Cavatua Lophocroa leadbeateri)
Medium-sized, gorgeous salmon-pink Major Mitchell's cockatoos are intelligent, sociable birds. These birds are known for being solitary and developing close relationships with their owners. These birds need a lot of care, thus experienced bird keepers who are accustomed to caring for huge parrots are better suited to care for them.
APPEARANCE
The only cockatoo species with a multicolored crest is the Major Mitchell's variety. Bright pink and orange-yellow feathers with white tips are seen when spread out.
The pinkish-white Major Mitchell's cockatoo is a vivid and readily recognizable bird. These flamboyant birds have large pink spots on their undersides and around their necks. Under their white-tipped wings, they frequently have vivid pink.
Though the ladies have more orange in their crests, the males tend to be shinier than the females. Whereas females often have reddish-pink eyes, males typically have brown eyes. Gray feet and horn-colored beaks are shared by both sexes.
