First in a series of exotic birds collection. A limited edition of 2500 exclusive to The Guild of Specialist Gift Retailers. Each had a special backstamp and a certificate. Unlike the paperweights in the aquatic creatures series, the Cockatoo will not go on general release with standard backstamp.

The word Cockatoo is derived from a Malay word meaning 'older sister' ('kakak' - sister and 'tua' - old). Cockatoos are unique in the ability to move their crests.
