The above photo was taken by Ann Britton who submitted it as a user submitted photo to the
ABC. It shows a flock of budgerigars at Boulia in far west Queensland (15 October 2009).
Budgerigars (also called budgies) are such a common (bird) pet that it's easy to forget that they are native to Australia and flock in the wild.

The budgerigar (
Melopsittacus undulatus) is a very hardy species.
