This is a picture of an Umbrella cockatoo and a Sun conure . When this bird raises its white crest, which looks like a large, white umbrella, it appears larger that its 18 inches. It can be a loud pet, and care should be taken that this big bird does not become the boss of your household. These birds are intelligent and known to enjoy attention. This species has above-average talking ability among cockatoos.

However, they have since proved to be prolific breeders, and it is now possible to buy captive-bred stock at quite reasonable prices. Pairs usually prove to be reliable parents, and may nest twice in succession. Their only drawback is their harsh calls. They are 34 inches long and are probably the macaw most commonly owned in aviculture. Its colors include a green forehead and black throat, as well as the predominant yellow-gold on the body and the blue on the wings, under tail coverts and crown through the back.
