Did you know that you can buy skateboards for your feathered friends online? Here are some examples from Zazzle:

If you type in "budgerigar skateboad", you'll find a few more of these. You can personalize most of them (change the color of the ceres or feathers). The skateboards are about 15-20 cm long, perfect size for a budgie! :)

Maybe a birthday present for Frodo and Isla?

Oh, and have a look at this!

Week of Skateboarding Budgies: Day Four

Today, I talked to a girl at the gym who happens to be from Australia. I told her that I have two pet budgies. Oh yes, she does know what budgies are. "Nasty little buggers!" She said (luckily half joking). "They can be very annoying at 5:00 am, like most Australian birds."
 I was just amazed at the thought. I occasionaly hear blackbirds in the morning, but that's about it. To be woken up by a swarm of 1.000 budgerigars who are ready to start the day? Wow. :D

Anyway, here is one article about the budgie website I referred to yesterday (click on the image to view full size).

... but you can't deny that skateboarding budgies is a unique phenomenon! I don't know who was the first one to come up with it, but I think it's fun! And it's a lot of fun for the budgies too! Check out this video from earlier on my blog, there you can see how budgies get the hang of it in five steps...

Skateboarding budgie

Five steps to learn your budgie the basics of skateboarding, which is a budgie's favourite sports game. They love to play this, and they love to get your attention :) Remember not to exhaust your budgie, 2 minutes per day for each step will do.
