Australian long billed corellas D564E - This group of long billed corellas were feeding on grain spilt on the ground near a farm storage silo, and that's where farmers would prefer to see them. They often descend, in immense and screeching flocks of many hundreds of birds, onto fields of ripening grain, and gorge themselves, much to the displeasure of farmers who can do little to discourage them and to prevent the damage to crops that these native birds often cause.
