The Corella, which belongs to the Cacadu family, can be found all around Australia in different sub- climates. They live in large flocks which can reach a few hundred birds. They feed on grain and grass seeds and in some agricultural areas have known to have become somewhat of a pest to farmers, feeding on the crops. The Corella is mostly white and has a pink patch between the eye and the bill. The Corellas are very noisy eaters, and while the eat, they produce very loud and noisy cries which can be heard from afar. The corellas are monogamous and pair for life.

When the young hatch they helpless and depend totally on the parents for food and protection until the fledge.
