What are the mating rituals for cockatoo birds?

Cockatoo mating rituals often involve elaborate displays of courtship behaviors, such as head bobbing, vocalizations, and feather fluffing. Males may perform acrobatic flight displays to attract females, while both sexes engage in mutual preening and touching to strengthen their bond. The rituals can vary among species, but they generally emphasize visual and auditory signals to establish pair bonds and readiness to mate. Once a pair forms, they typically engage in monogamous relationships, often nesting together for several breeding seasons.
