Melbourne Zoo 2026 – Red Tailed Black Cockatoo
A Red Tailed Black Cockatoo at the Melbourne Zoo. This cockatoo was flying up and down the main path through the zoo between two keepers. He was swooping around visitors and skimming just over their heads. Unfortunately none of the in-flight photos where he showed off the two red tail panels were clear enough to use.

Melbourne Zoo 2026 – Swamp Wallaby
A Swamp Wallaby in the Australian Bush Habitat at the Melbourne Zoo.

The swamp wallaby is the only member of the wider kangaroo family with webbed feet, meaning that they are great swimmers.
