My suspicions have been confirmed discovering the cat from previous occasions on my side fence. I quickly chased it from my yard; so hopefully the scare is enough to keep it away.
If it is not responsible I still do not like it lurking so close to my birds of a night time, why can't people with cats be responsible and lock their cat's up of a night I do not know.

Galah (Cacatua roseicapilla)
Galah
Sexing -
The female had red eyes while the male has black.
Noise -
Moderate to High, they can produce a very loud squawk when alarmed. They are
generally quite unless that squawk is produced.
General care -
I will be keeping my Galah's in my larger group aviary with Princess Parrots,
Bourke Parrots, Red Rumped Parrots and a Gouldian Finch. They appear to have a good temperament but they are larger than the other species and have no reason to be threatened.
I have been providing my usually mixed seed with daily vegetable, fruit and greens (just in greater levels)
Breeding -
They are a proven breeding pair, so I'll be looking at options for nesting boxes shortly. I do have one I converted out of a hollow log which will be one of my options for these birds.
