Cockatoos!

There are five common species of the white cockatoo, the Galah/Rose-Breasted, Goffin’s, Moluccan, Sulphur-Crested, and the Umbrella.

The Galah/Rose-Breasted are one of the smaller ones of the cockatoo family, they’re only 14 inches tall. They have gray wing feathers and a white and pink crest (head).

The Goffin’s bird is one of the smallest, standing at 11 inches tall. Their feathers are white and yellow, and they may seem like the quietest but they can make noise when they want to!

The Moluccan’s are the largest of the cockatoos. They are about 20 inches tall and have salmon and pink colored feathers and a white crest.

The Sulphur-Crested birds are the same size at the Moluccan standing at 20 inches tall. They’re white with a yellow crest and yellow tail feathers.

The Umbrella bird is slightly smaller than the Sulphur-Crested and the Moluccan, but has the personality of the Moluccan. They have a broad-feathers white crest, and have a touch of yellow under its wings and tail.  

The cockatoo is a very affectionate companion bird if raised properly. They bob their heads and dance for attention and they find great joy in showing off their tricks if you’ve taught them.
