We were taken to a park here (which is going to stop allowing this in 3 year's time) in Melbourne, Australia where you are given trays to feed the wild cockatoos. Because they've been having issues with these birds becoming aggressive to tourists, they are stopping this over a process of doing it less and less each year over a 3 year time span. We luckily did not experience any aggression ourselves but I did witness some on other people. Nonetheless, it was a really cool experience to be this close with wild cockatoos whom I'm finding are not as intimidating as the captive ones! 

I hope you guys enjoy this behind the scenes video and enjoy the 360 aspect (when watching you can change the perspective and look around!)

360 COCKATOOS in my FACE!

We used our 360 camera to catch this cockatoo chaos at Grant’s Picnic area in Australia. This is a place where you can feed wild cockatoos although they are planning to discontinue this in two years time. Thanks to Mel (kind of) for bringing us to this place! We did a fun meet and greet excursion here with a group of bird lovers and enjoyed getting to know everyone who joined us.

Absolutely amazing footage you got there of all the cockatoos and the kookaburra

Claire Hennekam

This is awesome! I'll have to watch it a few times to catch everything 😄 I'm inspired to do more with my Fusion camera now too 😉 It was a really great weekend, with the workshop, the cockatoos, and then the masterclass. Thank you for everything 💕 Hopefully I will have made more progress with my two little poppets by the time you visit next 🙈 Which I hope is soon!! 🇦🇺🐦💜

Thank you for sharing! The 360 was AMAZING! I'm surprised at just how white such big outdoor birds are.

Kathy Surber

Awesome! I'd love to be in the middle of that flock. =0 )

This would be absolute heaven for me. Wish I had gone to Australia when I had the chance. Also Jamie's laugh reminds me so much of Storm :)

We feed our local wild cockatoos, but as we don’t use bird netting, they nip off every bud and flower on our apple and peach trees. They are very clever and destructive.
