omg, I thought I was a sucker for vibrantly colored birds, but that black is amazing. :shock: I wonder how big of a lottery I'd have to win to be able to afford one...

hmm, more than half of what I have in my account for two birds I couldn't possibly care for properly. Plus I'd probably die before they would. Oh well, I can dream, right?

I'd never get anything done if I had them - I'd sit, mesmerized by them, as the hours passed by...

Never heard of a Black Palm Cockatoo (the black one also stood out to me in the picture) but just googled it... what an interesting looking bird, very unique. Almost looks like they're wearing a masquerade style mask :)
also popped up on google: a pair for adoption here in the uk 16months old hmmmm :)
