Overview
The sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita) is a relatively large white cockatoo found in wooded habitats in Australia, New Guinea, and some of the islands of Indonesia. They can be locally very numerous, leading to them sometimes being considered pests. A highly intelligent bird, they are well known in aviculture, although they can be demanding pets.

Sounds
:There are a couple of sounds at 1:03 that I am not sure about: they might be a female eastern whipbird and a Cacatua galerita (which is also at 0:36), then a satin bowerbird.
Also a Peron's tree frog.
Eastern spinebill 0:14
New holland honeyeaters are throughout the track.
I also saw a Cormobates leucophaea, however it doesn't seem to vocalize here.
