Aviary Bird

Initially, cage birds were kept only by the rich, but today budgerigars are regarded as the world’s most popular pet. In 1845 a pair of Australian budgerigars was presented as a gift to Queen Victoria, and it was speculated many ships returning to England took these precious birds along with them - they were much sought after by gypsies and fortune-tellers.
