Little Corella is one of several related species of Cockatoo, called Corellas.
Its congregates in flocks up to several thousand birds, which often include many Galags.
The birds generally roosts in trees overnight, and flies off to feed in the early morning and late afternoon with an almost deafening screeching.
When Little Corellas play, they become very noisy. They have conversations with each other, flies and also shows off by hanging themselves upside-down with their feet, beaks or both.
One bird was seeing hanging upside-down on two wires with its feet and back, letting its feet go and climbing  up. Then it does it all over again the right way up, and upside-down in a spinning motion.

We know also: Long billed Corella and Western Corella..
