Booklover re the birds .... having them around all the time means that you don't really notice them as much I think. You know what it's like the more you become familiar with things the less you notice.
However, what I would notice missing would be the various birdsong if that wasn't a constant backdrop when I was at home. Most of our birds are NOISY, lol!!
Some of course have very pretty songs, but the cockatoo screech is a bit way over the top especially when the flock's quite large and they're sitting in trees surrounding you when they start their screech yelling match. Ouch that's loud and not at all tuneful.
Re the black cockatoos - oh yep - we get the yellow tailed blacks here, and I've also seen the red tailed blacks and gang gangs in the wild.
I always know when the yellow tailed black is around or overhead because of their distinctive call.
