For another budgie clip from alice Online , this time time showing the more intimate lives of budgies go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hh6tvRXeHNo

Meanwhile this film records a relatively rare phenomenon around Alice Springs: massive flocks of budgies. Galahs and ringneck parrots are common enough in Alice Springs, but budgies are only seen after good rains. They are an amazing sight.
As Meg Mooney writes at www.aliceonline,com.au:


"These birds are magnificent synchronised flyers. They wheel around in unison, so hundreds of birds flash bright green and yellow as they catch the sun. The flocks break up into groups and reform in endless patterns, like schools of fish or swarms of insects. Who would keep budgies in cages if they could see this?"

  • @STHFGDBY No there are:Grey,Yellow,Green,Blue,Pur­ple and White i think

  • must budgies are the same colour in the wild it is mostly in captivity that they get different colours

  • @STHFGDBY Yes, absolutely! Budgies are blue or white in nature, it does not, at least not in a swarm as a dominate color!

    This man has played so God. It was playing around with genes and mutations.

  • @wradmiral There is a way you can do that and its by collecting nature stuff (make sure its green) and put it in your cage. simple but take it out before they go to bed and redo it in the morning. ;) hope i helped!

  • <3 budgies. I've had George for 10.5 years and he's a big talker!
