Budgies
In this project I am focusing on birds and specifically on budgies. Birds came to our world about 150 thousand years ago. They live almost everywhere in the world. Now there might be over 10000 species in the world. Birds have 3 major differentiating things from other mammals: 1) they have wings; 2) they have feathers; 3) they have beaks instead of teeth .
Archaeopteryx
Where do birds fit in the Classifications of Animal
Invertebrates and Vertebrates Invertebrates have no back bones such as crustaceans, arachnids, insects, protozoa, annelids, molluscs, and echinoderms.
Vertebrates have back bones such as birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.

There are two major groups of animals. There are
the invertebrat
es and there are
the vertebrate
s.
Budgies live in Australian deserts. The normal temperature is about 60 degrees.
These are wild budgies.
These are a Tamed budgies.
Did you know that a group of Budgies are called “a company”of budgies.
Budgies are also called parakeets.

female Budgie
Can you tell the difference between a girl and boy budgie? The way you can tell between a boy budgie and a girl budgie is that boy budgies have blue patches on top of there noses and Girl budgies have pink, brown, red, and beige patches. Sometimes when a girl budgie is young its nose might turn blue or white.
TOUGH DAYS AHEAD - Some of the Budgies in the big company will be eaten by Hawks, Snakes, and other predators. Many more will die when the waterhole dries up and they can't find enough to eat or drink.

Budgies eat lots of different foods. Some of them eat carrots. Most budgies eat seeds, lettuce, and apple. Wild Budgies eat wild berries, seeds dandelion leaves, and sometimes even flowers.
Some Budgies eat bugs
If a Budgie loses a tail feather it my have trouble steering when in flight. So make sure you don’t let them fly around a lot because they will crash into walls a lot and hurt them selves. This happens to all birds that’s why you should try to keep them in there cage so they won’t hurt them selves.
This are just some of the different kinds of Parakeets

Budgie is the short form for
budgerigar.

These two pictures shown above are the same species of parakeets.
A budgie can live from 1-12 years old but most budgies only live 3-10 years. The oldest budgies I have is about 3 years old and the others are from 7 months –2 years old. Baby budgies can be tamed easier then adult budgies because they are young and they will learn faster..
A budgie’s age can’t be told by their outer appearance .
But I can tell my budgies age because I got them all in different times. When I got them they were all the size of a toddler’s hand.
