Very nice. Budgies don't seem to be quite as popular as pets here as they were say 30-40 years ago. Some of the larger parrots have displaced them a bit.
We had a state election here a couple of months ago and the candidate for the Liberals had a habit of doing press conferences in his 'budgie smugglers'. He didn't win......
