🌏 Galah (Eolophus roseicapilla)
The Galah (also sometimes known as the Rose-breasted cockatoo, or Pink and Grey Galah), is a strikingly beautiful cockatoo, about 35cm long, with a pale silver-grey back and a vibrant pink face and breast, topped with a light pink crest. It's widely distributed across mainland Australia, inhabiting various open environments, including urban areas. Highly social, Galahs form large, noisy flocks, often seen foraging on the ground for seeds. They exhibit playful and acrobatic behaviours, sometimes stripping leaves from trees. 2.5 Flash (Edited)
