budgerigars
Small Australian parrots
Budgerigars are small parakeets native to Australia, commonly kept as pets worldwide.
The word is usually shortened to budgie.
These birds are known for their bright green and yellow plumage, though captive breeding has produced many color variations.
Budgerigars can learn to mimic human speech: Our budgie says "pretty bird" whenever someone walks past his cage.
