yes they are beautiful, but my god are they noisy. My sister nicknamed them crazy birds. LOL because of their erractic behaviour and the noise they make at dusk and dawn, it can drive you totally nuts if you're trying to sleep. I'm glad I don't have a large flock roosting near me. I just get cockatoo's which are actually louder but at least thier flocks are smaller, where I live anyway. When most tourist's arrive in Australia and hear a cockatoo screech for the first time they think a pteroydactl is coming to take them away. It's quite funny to watch their reaction to that and kookaburra's as well.
