A male gang gang cockatoo in mid-flight with wings spread and tail fanned, framed by eucalyptus leaves and thin branches against a pale blue sky.

Wrong. First, the cockatiel is a cockatoo species endemic to Australia. Second, not all cockatoos are white with the yellow crest (see Calyptorynchus and Zanda genera). Third, related to the second point, after the Gang-gang cockatoo split away from the main cockatoo branch, the remaining branch later split into the Galah and the true white cockatoos and corellas.
