The art of flying

Budgies who live in the wild are always on the move - they fly around in huge flocks, often twenty to fifty budgies at once, sometimes even more than one thousand budgies!

The co-ordination among the flying budgies is astonishing. When they have to make a sudden turn, the flock won't give you the impression that it consists of individual birds, but they will fly like one - without any collisions.

  1. Are you suggesting we get a thousand? Because I'm okay with that ;-) As long as you clean up after them ;-) <3

  2. No, but I'd like to see them sometime in the wild :) Maybe one day we'll go to Australia?
