As I drove in to my driveway the other day, I saw all these Cockatoos busy gardening in our front garden.

I wanted to capture their flight on camera, so I got out of the car very quietly, well as quietly as I could, got my camera (aka my phone) ready and started walking towards them. As soon as I was too close for comfort, all of them took off.

I love the way the picture turned out. Different stages of flight for all of them.

I was in the mood to create something different, something unusual, something I had never painted earlier. And this is the end result of my endeavour. I have used pencil, pen and water colours here. I decided to call her “Angelina”.
