How to party like a cockatoo

First you stand in a paddock and shriek loudly until your mates all over the city have heard you and come to stop you from being lonely.



You make yourselves comfortable along the side of the road. Any pesky people invading your patch should be mobbed and screeched at until they learn their lesson.



Water is there to be stomped upon. So show it who's boss.






If someone taking photographs is getting on your nerves, and waddling slowly away from her with your arse in the air is not helping, it might be time to move the party to a better location.





And if you just want to get away from it all, there's no better way than to pretend you are part of the decoration, so take all your friends and go festoon a tree like giant white pompoms. This provides better elevation for maximum screech potential, and you can have fun bouncing up and down on thin twigs while flapping your wings, or hang upside down and pretend you're a bat.
