We added another bird to our flock yesterday evening! A young yellow
Australian-descended broad-tailed parrot (aka budgerigar aka parakeet) named
Spartan Don “Buzz” Barksdale (or Sparty) joined our two other
birds,
(Blue) Belle and (green) Striker.
These budgerigars are a small species of bird, but Sparty is definitely a
big guy. He has a bit of dark coloring on his head and tail and some dark
trim on the wings, but over much of him he is light yellow and green.
Jessica chose him for his friendly and outgoing personality.
