Biggest Swarm of Budgies
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 01. 2012
- Budgerigars search for food and water in the outback of Australia. They fly in small flocks which gradually join other flocks of budgies, allowing their numbers to increase to super swarms of millions of budgerigars.
Earthflight uses many different filming techniques to create the experience of flying with birds as they encounter some of the greatest natural events on the planet.

That's why you shouldn't keep pet budgies alone. Keep them in groups of at least a million
And start taming each one of them

Someday when I leave for the other side, I hope to be reunited with all the family birbs I've lost over the years. These little bundles of joy brought me so much comfort during an era where life almost lost all meaning for me. Losing them all overtime always left my heart in tatters. To this day, I still think about you fluffballs deeply wondering if I ever did enough for you. Wherever you six are, I hope you are flying with with far more freedom than I can ever hope to provide you. I love you all.
This made me cry
You made my French fries into French cries ;-;
I feel the same way! I've had budgies since I was little. I always considered budgies as "personifications" of innocence, joy, affection - and fragility. A budgie is one of many proofs to me that God, the Creator of everything, has a tender heart. I live in freezing Vermont, and I make sure my two little friends, Petey and Peeps, stay warm and cozy, and have nice music to listen to while the days are dark. They get the best food and care, and lots of love.
This is exactly how I feel about my little angels! Been a bird Mom since 1997 and these little dumplins have brought such joy to my life!

That's sad to hear. I hope the other 3 lived long and happy lives.

Can confirm. I had a budgie alone for a little over a year. He was okay, but was kind of withdrawn. I got another budgie this year, and the older one is SO MUCH HAPPIER now. They are inseparable, and he's even much friendlier with me. He now will fly to my hand any time I hold it out, and just sit there chillin' with me. He never would have done that before. He even flies on my head and starts pecking around. It's a completely different, much happier bird. I'd say keeping a budgie alone is borderline animal cruelty.
kingcrimson234 Any animal in general shouldn't be alone, except if that animal is a snake or fish or something like that

Honestly I wouldent mind.

Oh I wake up to two of them screaming at me at five in the morning because they decide they want an early morning snack lmfao
Imagine all the poop tho I couldn’t
You wake up to new friends :D
Wild budgies: I am slim and can out-maneuver any predator and fly miles without relaxing!
My budgies: help I ran out of millet and I pooped in my water bowl
my budgie, who has non-clipped wings and can fly perfectly well: hooman you're a whole half meter away pick me upp :(
Tuna: Stay as a group!! They can't get us in the thousands!!
Budgies: Hold my beer.
Its hilarious to me that these technicolor pompoms can survive in the wild! They're such oblivious little goofballs with no sense of fear
Yet there they go
Thriving and doing their best
Im so proud of them
They are native to Australia bro. Idiot
strength in numbers!
well they are still REALLY smart they are in the parrot family after all and they can talk.
No fear at all. My bird was out and the cat snuck in the room, while I was trying to catch the cat as fast as possible and move him away, the budgie decided that going to him and biting his ears was a good idea. He also loves to tug on the cats whiskers when inside the cage and the cage is looking at him. I'm constantly near having a panic attack trying to get them to stay in two different rooms for their safety
My nanas definitely has a sense of fear it won’t let me get close to it or anyone for that matter
It's like a giant cloud of cuteness! O_O

@@gunguns3561 Probably their pet budgie if you couldn't tell-
It made me inmensely happy seeing them flying in their natural habitat.
Me when adopting my bird: I have to get 2 so that they aren’t lonely, right?
Pet guy: Nah this one doesn’t play well with others.
Pet guy: *hands me a feather demon made of hatred*
Me: I’ll take em.
Ah yes. That was my female. She hated her cagemate and hated to be handled but also hated when I handled the other birds and would literally attack me in rage. She was so jealous. Turns out she wanted to breed and even with everything I did it wasn't good enough to lower her hormone levels. My males were young and afraid of her so I gave her to a breeder friend since she was a mutation he wanted. It took a few tries for her to meet a male she likes but now she's very happy taking care of her babies and I'm happy for her. My other birds are happy that she's gone

As someone who has two budgies, the concept of being there in the presence of a superorganism of budgies is, quite frankly, terrifying.
Budgies are my soulmate pets. I love them so much.
DarkHeartEzio So do I. Can relate to that very much.
Same, I recently got one as a gift and it was the best thing to ever happen. It legit cheers me up whenever I see it and is helping with my depression. Just having such a tiny little creature trust you and land on your shoulder is such a nice feeling. Then it'll sit there chirping away while I do stuff. I love it so much!
9 years later...why you make me wait CZcams? I needed a flock of tiny parrots at least six years ago.
Just two of my budgies are loud as heck I can imagine all of these
Amazing:) and i thought 50 budgies in my aviary was a lot hehe

Its nice to see these birds in their natural environment
OMG I AM UR BIG FAN
@@athensroja lol
It’s not good thoughhhhh they can’t survive because of predators attracted by their colourful feathers they can get Ill VERY easily from dirty water eating poop etc and they can’t find enough food or water and if they get sick there is a chance of them surviving IF they go to the vets but they can’t it’s safer When they are home but you can get flight cages chew toys natural perches and more! You can let them out the cage for two hours (in the house) which is safe unlike in the wild,so it May be beautiful looking at them in the wild but it’s very dangerous budgies can’t survive without food or water for a day

But.. ALSO caged budgies are bred in captivity so they didnt catch them wild
And how incredibly sad is that too....denying birds their right to fly and to be wild. So cruel. So ignorant.
