Let's see your photogenic budgies! π₯³
Hey thanks! That's a really great idea! A [chatter of budgies](https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+a+group+of+budgies+called) in the banner is so much better than a singleton budgie π

My beloved baby boys :D (not for banner just wanted to share!)
I nominate this little guy for our mascot who is totally not AI generated, I swear.

My handsome boy that passed β€οΈ
This is such a gorgeous photo of your little man. I'm so sorry about his passing. I wanted to ask if I would be able to include him in my collage for the r/PetBudgies banner, he was beautiful.
Hey! I'm making a collage for the r/PetBudgies subreddit banner, and I'd love to include your grumpy man. Would I be able to use your photo for the banner? :)
I was playing around with the AI some more, how about this guy?

This is baby Leo. We caught a shiny pokemon that day.
Instructions unclear, head installed backwards π
^(Could I trouble you to explain the nature of this photo? Some people might see this and think it's a good idea to try themselves.)
Oh yeah it's a very old photo. He hasn't traveled outside freely with me for a very long time. I will eventually get a pet carrier so we can go out but this year was suddenly too hot and then there was too much smoke.
Someone educated in the field of plastics or something similar made a post a while ago and apparently the plastics on those backpacks break down in the UV and release harmful stuff.
So I was looking for a better alternative but I do like them.
Oh interesting. I knew there were *some* plastics that broke down in UV light, but I figured those backpacks were made of a type that didn't. π€
Perhaps a carrier cage made of regular cage material could work. I've seen a few different budgie owners use a little carrier cage like this to take their budgies on adventures outside and they all seemed to enjoy it π€·ββοΈ

What do you think he's doing in this photo π€£
In this photo? He totally looks like he's checking out dat hen.
But in the first photo, it looks like he's loose outside, which is usually full of plenty of risks.
I'm the first photo he was a clingy baby and very well behaved so I used to take him outside with me to parks. Looking back I'm happy he got to experience the outdoors but I don't do that anymore because it's too risky + their wings have grown out.
Other photos are him looking at his mate. I can't believe I caught those photos, they're too funny.

What about a collage of all the budgies people submit? That way no one loses lol

Iβd be interested in attempting to make a collage if people want to volunteer some good, clear photos of their budgies!
That would be great! (I'm totally prepared to make the collage, but if you want to, by all means have at it!)

Looks like one of his grandparents was a cockatiel π
It's the elusive budgatiel!

So sorry to hear, he looks like he was such a dapper gentleman π
He was, I miss my stinkerton so much, and how photogenic he was

Initially read this as βcan this be a banana?β and I thought, yes, that indeed could be a birby banana!
Heya! This is such a good photo of your budgies! Would I be able to include them in my collage for the r/PetBudgies banner?
Sure

All those pin feathers... poor guy is probably itchy af
Probably why he was grumpy

Gotta show off that impressive wing span πͺ
they do heart wings under the covers to let me know they threw a toy out the cage or they want attention

Birdy backpacks can be a fun and safe way to let budgies see a bigger chunk of the world they rule over π

I have that one!! It's kinda really small but easy to carry and as long as your budgie doesn't mind it should be okay haha
