The western cockatoo, or slender-billed cockatoo, is a medium-sized white bird with a very long and thin upper beak. It lives in flocks in forests and fields in southwestern Australia.
The Slender-billed Cockatoo differs from other cockatoos by its very long and narrow beak, which allows it to extract food from hard soil. It is important for nature because it disperses plant seeds and eats harmful insects.
