PLEASE READ: This is a Pet Budgie, not a wild bird. The Budgie is not native to Ontario, Canada. They are native to Australia. I would never randomly catch a wild bird. Our winters are brutal and most likely he would not survive our winter. Budgies that are wild and live in Australia are Green in color. Breeders have developed many color mutations such as this blue budgie that I found. You will never see a blue budgie in the wild unless it got loose from it's owner or someone let it go. Also pet budgies can be green here in Ontario and all over the world that are pets. Many people loose their pet bird through open windows or doors in their homes. This is clearly a pet and just because it's not handtame he is still is a pet. When a pet bird is not tame they are considered to be wild but not wildlife. If a bird owner has two birds that have babies and they don't handle the babies they will be wild birds but still pets that live in their homes. A lot of people have birds that are not tame and consider them wild or untamed. The word WILD means untamed but still a pet. I hope this clears things up for those of you who think I am mean to catch this Budgie. It's more cruel to leave him outside.

Love of Pets I caught a pigeon that had a band on it. It was a homing pigeon, but a bone was broken. The owner didn’t want it back, so we released it into a barn with two other pigeons. I haven’t checked on her in a while, but I hope she’s safe. I also rescued 3 (R.I.P the 4th) starving budgies from a pet shop. The owners didn’t know they were starving until one died. They were feeding them pellets, and the budgies didn’t know it was food. I’ve also rescued 2 cockatiels. One cockatiel was found by a doctor we knew, and we couldn’t find the owner. We decided to keep it. The second one the owner couldn’t take care of it anymore. We decided to keep it too.

[@lisasim2851]

@@dingopes3847 well he wouldn't be 1 year old because he is a bit too young I would say about 2 and a ½ months old

[@Palpo_pics]

Fun fact: The reason he/she is copying the sound of the sparrows is because he/she was probably part of their flock! Sparrows are very nice and willing to accept any birds that seem alone into their flock. The sparrows accept them as their own, and bring them to food, shelter, and help them survive! But of course so so glad you caught that budgie because it of course isnt a wild bird and probably doesnt know a predator yet!

[@corrinjessen]

Blue Bird Studios Plus housing sparrows are not nice lol. They are invasive, stealing nesting material from native birds, and kick out blue birds and other next boxing natives. So no sparrows are not nice and budgies are just good at mimicking.

[@samistrash6262]

It's very surprising how far wings can take a bird. It may not seem far, but trust me, they can travel very very long distances. So yes, I wouldn't be surprised if someone's budgie from America somehow migrated to Canada (that is if it was a state closer to Canada)

[@nightlove3574]

Some years back I came back from school to find an exhausted lost budgie perched on top of my budgie's cage in the back yard. He was so tired I was able to grab a towel and just plop him into our spare cage. He was also apparently very hungry. Poor little guy. We kept him until he passed roughly two years later.

[@ave5668]

[@catsRwarriors3]

When I was in the 8th grade I went to the swimming pool and found a budgie there. His head was completely bald and he was very stressed. I remember everyone at the pool was trying to catch him with their hands, only stressing him more. So I stepped up, covered him with a towel and caught him. The lifeguards gave me a box and I took him him where he spent his life relaxing and playing with his budgie girlfriend! We never found his owners, but I was kind of glad because I loved him so much. He died in 2013, and I still miss him, he was such a cute bird. His head feathers never grew back but I considered his bald spot part of his charm lol!

[@majabronisz4099]

Im gald you cought it and not the other people I feel like that bird would have not a nice life if they did

[@kia7130]

so a little over 2 months ago i lost my cockatiel who was under a year old, he was hand reared by me and hadn't had his wings clipped and never had been outside, he would fly around my house and was pretty chill. on the 18th of April he fell out of an open window and panicked so started to fly but he lost his sense of direction and soon he was out of sight. we put up plenty of posts in hope of someone finding him but never did, i had lost hope. Today we got a message and turns out someone had found him! so now i have my baby back but I'm going to have put in a lot of work to regain his trust and let him heal as he was living in the wild for as i said over two months! its a miracle he is even alive still let alone back with me. I'm scarred he will never fully be tamed again but i won't lose hope now after i had given up on him. To anyone who has lost a bird don't lose hope, miracles do happen!

[@barbnbirds]

I lost a parakeet that had gotten out of his cage.I put another cage out on my front porch with his buddy in it and he called to the guy that got out and low and behold he landed on his old cage from our Apple tree and I just brought the cage in my house with him on the outside of the cage.His buddy called and called him and that’s how I got him in.Sooo glad you were able to catch your cockatiel.

[@mekastar6751]

When you mentioned that he probably wouldn’t be happy in captivity I think he will because even though the sparrows have accepted him, he was clearly trying to get inside that cage with the other budgies. You are such a kind and patient person to spend 8 hours to catch him! Such a cool video!

[@carolbourlier572]

He's a pretty budgie

You were so very patient, I don’t think I could have stayed outside for eight hours for her, but I don’t have any budgies to tempt her with either. She was very lucky to have found you. Sweet video.

[@berglettemom6045]

It was so amazing when he went in your house! I used to have a blue parakeet that looked just like him. A friend of mine caught him on someone’s front lawn. I hope you find his owners or decide to keep him! He’s very cute.

[@lamesauced4828]

He is so so lucky to have found you. He seems extremely happy already.

[@teardropface]

Thank you for recording this process and glad the budgie is safe with you. Your budgies were probably chirping “This is a great place to be. You will get lots of care and love here! Come on in birdy!” I also believe the budgie was out there for awhile to be able to chirp like the sparrows. You will probably be owning him since it’s been so long. I just hope no one tries to claim him as theirs because they saw this video and know your proximity since you mentioned where you advertised in your video. Does he check out to be healthy?

[@Loveofpets]

Yes he seems healthy. I would need proof that it's there budgie before releasing him. If no one claims his I may keep him but that would mean I would have 9 budgies and need one more to make even numbers as they usually pair up. It make work with 9, I will see.

[@87FloJo]

I caught a young yellow budgie a couple of years ago in San Antonio, TX. My aunt would see it eating with the chickens every morning but she couldn't catch it because it was too fast for her lol so I told her to cover the entire cage but one side & cover the whole thing as soon as the budgie goes in. We had no gloves so I said to myself, "A nice hard pinch won't kill me"😂 so I went in & caught it with my bare hands just to learn it was very friendly. Did not even nibble at my fingers much less bite. It was so cute💛 Thanks for sharing💙💙

TheBellajulia they are catching a wild bird that she does not know anything about and could have chicks and there are now going to die and this is just a few reasons why this is cruel

[@Loveofpets]

Seriously? Budgies are not native to my area, he is a pet budgie. He is all alone, he did not live with a flock of budgies. Read my description and you will understand more. Budgies live in Australia in a huge flock with thousands of budgies. I am in Canada and we have freezing cold, snowy, icey winter's and he would be dead by now. There are tons of pet birds that fly out of people's windows all the time and they can not live in our climate. They are pets and not wild birds. It would be like dropping you off in the middle of the desert and saying good luck, go and survive, lol. I can't believe how anyone thinks like you. Do some research first before responding with the wrong information, read the description and ask me questions first before you decide that I am catching a wild bird for no reason. Why would I do that? I love wild birds and I feed them and if I find an injured wild bird I bring it to the wild life centre. It's against the law to capture wild birds and keep them as pets, the poor bird would suffer. This budgie was an escaped bird or someone let him loose because they did not want him anymore which is cruel. He is doing great and is happy with my flock now.

So happy you got him. He may of survived a few month in the open if he found seed but the cold weather would be the worst for him. I have also lured budgies in with my own budgies. My feeders outside are always full of seed just in case there is one who is hungry. People don't really feed the wild birds around me but I always do. He does look like a young bird and I'm sure you will be able to tame him.🐦😘

[@Loveofpets]

I am happy I found him before the winter. There are so many missing birds out there. Some are deceased when found, they die of starvation, predators or exhaustion. I heard about another budgie in a parking lot last month that was very weak and wild birds were picking on him. By the time I got there it was gone. I hope someone else saved him.

[@Loveofpets]

Oh wow, very interesting.

[@Neverending1]

This is such a great video. I love seeing everyone comment on here about helping to save budgies that were pets that unknowingly ended up in the wild. They have such a tough time out in the wild once they have been pets. Kudos to all of you that have been successful. Budgies are the sweetest babies ever and deserve a beautiful life❤️!

[@evewright7382]

When you said he was biting himself, he was actually preening, which is a thing. It means the budgie is comfortable with its environment

[@leonpennings7596]

Yes, it is no biting at all😁

[@ceeb3192]

Thank you for your dedication, perseverance, and patience in catching this budgie. This is a great resource for other trying to help stray budgies. Good job!

Love what you did and how you take care of your birds! I showed this video to my dad, he doesn't know a word of english but he almost cried looking at it! I saved a few birds that were chased by crows here (Cockatiels mostly) and I know how hard and frustrating it can get, but boy that feeling when you finally save the bird... can't describe it. You really feel satisfied. As I keep a few birds on my own that are outside the cage 8-24 and just go in to sleep and eat, I gave the rest to responsible people if I couldn't find owners. Again, love what you do. Keep it up!!! Birds are thankful! :)

I found a budgie nearing my pet budgies after going home from shopping. The bird was willing to go inside with the other two, and when it was with them, the budgie ate a lot of my pet lovebird’s food (my lovebirds are also budgies) and slept immediately. I just caught her today, and named her Ashy. Ashy fits well with the other two parakeets, and we plan to buy them a bigger cage. I was a dog vlogger, and started to vlog my pet budgies, and you can see our videos in my channel!

This is very interesting. When I was a kid, one day I let one of our budgies out of his cage in our house. Unaware to me our patio door was open. He flew outside when he had the oportunity. I was soooo incredibly sad. Looked all day and into night for him, to no avail. I left some seed and water outside for him. The next morning I went out looking again. I actually found him. He was with a group of sparrows. It was almost as if the sparrows took him in. I brought my other bird's cage outside. He came to it and I brought him back inside. I was sooooo happy. I still think its interesting that sparrows will take budgies in. I've heard of this happening many times.

[@treasuretrovel3816]

I caught a loose budgie once by wheeling my budgie aviary outside and when he landed on the aviary, I slowly wheeled the whole thing inside the house. Then, it was a much easier task of netting him in the house. Thanks for taking the time to save this little guy's life. Now he gets to be in a flock of his own kind. The best thing that could happen for him is if you keep him and he can live in your beautiful bird room.

I really wanted a bird at the time and did plenty of research about budgies (pls don’t hate as it was someone’s lost pet and would’ve died that Christmas) and made a bet with my dad that if I could catch it I could keep it. He didn’t believe I could :) We didn’t have any budgies at the time, so we couldn’t use the method she did, we tried hanging a hamster cage with millet inside, it would sit on top, but couldn’t find a way inside. We ended up borrowing my neighbors old cat cage and caught it. But it squeezed through the bars while I was celebrating, we ended up putting mesh over it. I would sit behind it every day with the bird feeder inside until one day she went in and I pulled the string connected to the door. The whole process took two weeks. She was not young and w knew she was a previous pet and asked around, but no one claimed her. We named her Kiwi and then got her a friend, Blue (short for Blueberry). Kiwi and Blue are now pretty tame and will sit on my finger, or my shoulder. Blue will even give me kisses. It took me a few months, but now they are tame! And recently I even got two more budgies named Pickle and Twinkie, they are babies and I really want them to have a special bond with me and my sister. So yeah, if Kiwi had never come I would never be able to have a bird and develop my love for them. It was quite a blessing, and now they are quite content.

Well done! I was so invested in this video... it was exciting to watch. You are an awesome budgie mom.

[@Loveofpets]

Thank you

[@winchesterhollow2899]

I loved this video! I was genuinely on the edge of my seat reliving it with you several years later.

True story... my mom lived in a retirement home. Every day she and her friends would sit outside and feed the pigeons. They were so surprised to find a budgie hanging out with the pigeons! He continued to visit for several more days, but then never returned.

I love u for catching and saving him 🥰🥰

[@itssoupvids1073]

That’s not saving she is taking hi from the nature

[@TheFurryFriends]

Poor boy. I’m so glad you were able to get him.

[@snugbug5067]

He's a cutie. Glad you were able to catch him.

Wonderful video! Jack Sparrow, how cute! I always wondered how other people found parrots and not me, lol! We had a Lilac Crowned Amazon that someone found in their yard and brought into our bird lady's store one day when we were there buying food. I had to have him. He was a wonderful boy. Died during the summer. We think he was about 30. Right now we only have Amazons and Goffin's Cockatoos....miss the Budgies!

[@kyruiz]

I had a similar situation with my parakeet pine! She was not wild, but yet she did not like humans. I caught her, took her in, and now she’s as happy as can be with my two other parakeets

[@sophiengocsuongvo1292]

this is amazing! you're amazing! i love this!!!

[@cyndicombs1419]

Oh this is so wonderful! Now the little guy will be safe! I was so excited while watching. We have 2 sweet budgies (Ziggy and Bubbles) and a spoiled rotten 22 yr old Senegal ( Jake). I'm a brand new sub and I just love your videos! Very informative. Keep up the great work! 🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦

[@Loveofpets]

Thanks for subscribing! Your birds names are very nice. I used to have a cat named Ziggy.

[@flockofrcbirds]

I had seen this video for several times and it never gets boring to me. 😊

[@CenturianEagle]

This was a good video, I’ve always thought about how to handle something like this (how id handle a lost pet bird going to my feeder) and wow I didn’t know you’re in Ontario, I am as well, and it makes me think how real of a possibility it is for a bird to come to my feeder, I’ve also seen ads for lost cockatiels etc over the past year or so, posted up in various places, and while the idea of it coming to my feeder crossed my mind, I never really thought there was a real possibility of it happening. It’s been cooolllldd here lately though, and I feel bad for pets that got lost around here that didn’t get discovered before winter . Good job catching that budgie!

[@theoneandonlyrealjoker1827]

I think he new he found home lol

[@MarisaAndChew]

Great job! Love the name! My tiel mimicks the sparrows and Robin's but doesn't chirp otherwise! First time i heard it i thought we had a bird get in 😂😂😂

[@Loveofpets]

Lol, that's what I keep thinking when I hear a sparrow in my house, then I remember that's it's the budgie

[@MarisaAndChew]

Hopefully he starts to mimic the Budgies soon!! Or is a talker :P

[@diegocast199717]

That is how I got my first budgie! Like it went into my hands. However, keeping in mind the overpopulation of cats I think you did a great job rescuing it and making it part of your family, it would probably take weeks for it to starve or get eaten as it is not a native bird. Such a cutie and very young!

[@Marge719]

Haha, you really tried EVERYTHING! :)) This was fun to watch, thanks for sharing and God bless you!

[@sammanganaro6187]

My entire family kinda flipped when we saw this, thinking you found our runaway budgie, Nela, until we realized that this was in Canada while we live in California

[@sammanganaro6187]

Lol thanks ❤️ tbh he’s probably dead 😭

[@heidiauton7118]

They can fly vast distances a day so he probably is

[@dohcdohc7633]

Oh yeah yeah

[@iloveabi]

I lost my blue budgie named blueberry around the time of the upload of this video! I think that might be him! I live in the same area as where this budgie was found omg

[@narutohyuga1845]

It must of been exciting to finally catch it. It doesn’t deserve to live in the wild where it could easily die.

[@crochetingaroundnewzealand]

How exciting! I was holding my breath lol great information as well thanks

[@leporellothegoldfinch]

What a wonderful video! I was on the edge of my seat 😄 What an amazing job you did!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 😊

[@nancyvasquez8644]

Soo cute. Looks like mine, Baby Bloo. Video was very informative. Thx

[@hildaaybar9042]

Wow you did good ,,you got it Am glad, I remember when I was young we had the windows open and a budgie came inside and I kept him until he died , I was 15 and been having birds ever seen, I have 2 cockatiels ,I love ❤️ all birds I also feed the wild birds❤️

[@CritterHouseUSA]

OMG, I'm so glad you were able to catch him! Poor baby.

[@colloidalsilverwater15ppm88]

Really warm and human approach to situation. Very well and thank you. Of course, you are in Canada

[@Umbrellaoflove]

Thank you for saving the lost Budgie. I don’t think it would of survived a winter here in Ontario❣️🇨🇦

[@jeffreycn1]

I had similar instance last week. My dad and I were outside repairing his porch when a parakeet came flying right into his face before fluttering off. It was almost dark and we soon lost sight of it. The next day, it was back, munching on our bird feeder. we tried to get close, but to no avail. The next day was slightly chilly and with a frost advisory for that night, so we knew it probably wouldn't survive the night. Fortunately, I was able to catch it that afternoon with a fishing net. I know it's not exactly the nicest way to catch it, but it was a matter of life or death for the bird. Thankfully we were able to get a hold of its owner and the bird was safely returned.

[@Loveofpets]

Great ending!

[@jlhenry3905]

Thanks for catching and offering to return the lost bird. I lost 2 at different times as a kid. I am 70 now and thinking about giving a senior parrot a home. This video was cool. jh

[@SondraHarnes]

BRAVA! How wonderful! I am going to share this video on Next Door - so many people think it's impossible to catch a budgie (or other parrot, canary, finch). You are right, we must rescue them if at all possible! :-) :-) :-)

[@Loveofpets]

Sure, share away. 😊

[@hoboprincess007]

Baby Budgies will have solid Black Eyes and there lines go all the way to there Cear He’s Cute ! 🥰👍💕💞
