Just rescued a budgie from the clutches of a crow this morning. The poor little tyke was trying to escape from the pursuit of the crow which was right behind its trail.
They were flying quite low and the crow, which was more than 15 times larger than the budgie, pinned it down to the ground. The crow then held the powerless budgie in its powerful beak and flew up to the branches above.
The poor little budgie was shrieking its lungs out and as I looked up, feathers were being plucked out and came floating down like a blizzard.
The budgie fluttered hard with its life and manages to plummet down from the tree but the crow was soon swooping down after his prey again.
Taking this chance, I quickly ran over and shoo the vicious crow away. The poor budgie was terrified and fluttering it wings about but it couldn�t fly at all. It hobbles to a corner at the void deck and I picked it up.
The budgie is now resting inside my hamster�s Space Station cage. It is still in shock, I guess.

Any cage recommendations for a budgie??

I would suggest bringing the bird to a vet first. Budgie only need a small cage is around $10 each from most birdshops.

Bless you for saving the little one ;)

Well Done!! It's a beautiful bird. With love and care it should be well in no time.

Hmmm I would suggest get a bigger cage if possible, so the bird can move around freely :bigsmile:
