Wow!  What can I say about budgies?  They are definitely a marvelous and fascinating pet.  I have 2 budgies now (my other 3 have passed away from old age ailments in the past 4 years).  These guys may be little in size, but they are big in spirit.  Budgies make great bird companions as they are naturally curious/friendly.  But don't let them fool you!  Those little beaks can still deliver quite the whallop!  Budgies can pick up language quickly and can have a very large vocabulary.  My Boyd knew all the other birds by name and when he visited with them would call them by name and add "birdie"...
