The Long-billed Corella, Cacatua tenuirostris, is a cockatoo native to Australia. Species are mostly white, with a pink face and forehead. They also have faintly pink feathers on the breast and belly, and yellow on the underside of the wings and tail. The birds have a long white beak, which is used to dig for roots and seeds.
The species has a small distribution, and usually inhabits woodlands, river banks and farming land, though it is not uncommon in urban areas. (Source: Wikipedia.org)
