yellow tailed black cockatoo

Not exactly one of my best shots, but hey, when these guys come, I take what I can get!
I have only ever seen these guys here (Mt Hutton, Newcastle)once before. About 12 months ago I opened the back door one morning to see about a dozen in the tree in a neighbours yard. They stayed about 10 minutes before flying off and that was the last I saw of them.
Yesterday morning about 7.30 I was out the back and heard a noise and saw 3 in a neighbouring tree. I ran in and grabbed the camera (had to fiddle and change to the right lens) and snapped off a couple of pics before they flew off.
