Long-billed Corellas Cacatua tenuirostris in a Red River Gum at Barmah National Park. Flocks of hundreds of these birds, as well as Little Corellas, fly around noisily, particularly in the early morn, and at sunset. The Barmah National Park is an internationally recognised wetland, listed under the Ramsar Convention, with international migratory birds needing access to these wetlands.
