Budgerigars (also known as budgies or parakeets) are small parrots originating from Australia. Budgies are very sociable friendly birds who, if given plenty of encouragement, can learn a large vocabulary.

Cockatiels are also native to Australia and are one of the most popular companion birds in the US.
