Deafening after a while but there was a truckload of this species across the road and up the back of the block. Cackling and calling the whole time i was there.

Ah I love the white feathers around the necks of Noisy Friarbirds, it looks like they're all wearing feather boas XD

Agree totally. And the immature ones look like they have a messy row of pearls or crumbs on their breast!
