#budgerigars — Public Fediverse posts

#Budgerigars, 2015
Nature is at the centre of Claire Rosen’s creative process: ‘I was drawn to animals from a young age, their presence sparking a deep curiosity and fondness that have carried into my art.’ The series began with her own parakeet and some colourful domestic parrots. ‘I persuaded a bird shop to let me photograph its birds in a makeshift portrait studio in their lobby. One by one, I paired birds with backgrounds, aiming to complement their colours. The process was enthralling’

In this house the #budgies / #budgerigars live majority of the time outside their cage...
Sometimes called #parakeets... i thought somehow parakeet was a word closer to the indigenous term for it.. but it seems to be the contrary:
«First recorded in 1840–50; perhaps misrepresentation of an Australian Aboriginal language of northern New South Wales: gijirrigā (perhaps gijirr “yellow” or “small” + gā “head”)»

Budgies are always amorous - so this little guy is chatting up a female. Hope lives eternal!

January is #AdoptARescuedBirdMonth, and we have plenty of #birds in our care in need of new homes, including Opal and Garnet at Nevins Farm. They’re both #Budgerigars–a kind of parakeet–and are docile, gentle, and can even talk! Opal is a baby, so she needs to go to a home with a #parakeet or existing flock. Visit during open hours (12-4:30p, Tue-Sun) to adopt!

Budgerigar painting with a touch of chiaroscuro. This is an older work I painted from life on my Nintendo 3DS.
Chirp~

Fascinating native Australian wonder.

"To witness Melopsittacus undulatus in the hundreds of thousands, even millions, flashing gold and green as they twist and turn in unison to create billowing patterns in the sky, is on the bucket list of many serious international birders."
