Imagine being all alone and finding a nice giant who feeds you, shares living space with you, lets you cuddle up to them when you want to get warm and climb all over them?
You mean other people haven't experienced that?
I'm currently the pet human of a 300 feet tall giant called Slorg. I live on his shoulder and he feeds me pasta. We communicate through whistles. I thought that was normal 🥺
@@jp9707 such an adorable comment!! So glad u found the perfect human let to spend your life with🥰
Such a lucky feathered baby!!!
Thats why some guys like fat girls.
I appreciate that Baby came running to her for help and once they were inside he was like don’t touch me, stranger danger!
Yeah I'm glad she didn't take it personally and try to force a connection.
the exact same thing happened to me as in this video. found a little budgie like this in the park here in the uk. when I first got home he was so hungry he would cling onto me and even fly onto my head I guess to get my attention for food. who knows how long he was out there. but after he was fed and we went out and brought him a cage, he wanted nothing to do with us😂 he's warmed up to us now, not as touchy feely as the little guy in the video tho, he likes his space!!
@@mariana2046 It makes me feel horrible that there are people who would just release these poor birds into the wild. Captive bred animals have no instinct for surviving without humans. Glad to hear you rescued a little budgie and he’s doing well 😊
@Lotus Lady people do that?! why do people do that? I just assumed he accidentally escaped out of a window or something. yes he's a happy bird, definitely want to get him a friend because he's obsessed with his reflection in the mirror!
@@mariana2046 Oh lord yes! They do the same thing with reptiles too. Possibly rodents I’m not sure. People will get a bird because they think they are easy pets or a cute conversation piece for guests then realize there’s a lot of work to them and they make noise and will abandon them. Thankfully most get sent to shelters but plenty probably get released into the wild 🙁
My parakeet flew away, my fault, he got chased by a hawk but we didn't give up. Surprisingly he returned and I still have him today 💛
Same happened to my nan. Her cockatiel got outside, when she went into the garden. It was immediately attacked by crows. My nan went outside with the cage, and luckily the tiel came down and got back inside. Very shaken up, but OK. Was very lucky, as could have been chased away for good.
Mine flew away from me, and came back 3 days later, i found him in the tree outside our house - so i took his cage with his mate in it - and he directly flew inside the cage :D
@@Larsson91ml congrats 🙌
ANIMIL-L0VE ISNT PARALEL
Modern people are so brainless, silly nature loves who do more damage than good. Okay you concerned paras**es.... the bird got out of his original home, not abandoned. Just abandoned on the title like it was a sort of rescue from a person who was an a-hole and just left his bird out to be lost.. what you should of done is look into it to see if someone was missing the bird so you can confirm if this bird was abandoned or severely lost. this made me sick, the music, the whole joyful rainbow stuff... the little animations showing the animals making little sounds... next thing you know they will have deers and bears playing together and some half witted bubbly person with a blank look talking to the camera of how amazing this garbage is. ... perfect example... you lost the poor bird and imagine someone found it and said your bird was simply abandoned by you.... like animals at the pound called rescues because the person violated a by law and bam... a rescue.... or like when my budgie got out by a stupid mistake and someone probably found her and said.... i found an abandoned bird. someone will look at my comment and be like what a facsist, sexxist, hatefull, ahole.. hahahahahahahaha
I'm a bird owner.
This video literally made me cry because I'm so angry that he was left alone & at the same time, I'm crying because I'm happy that he was literally able to find a home with somebody.
Baby is so cute...
I am too a bird owner. I have cared for 2 rescue birds , breeding and received 2 unwanted ones from a family. They are God's creatures just as dogs and cats. They are so loving ❤️.
@DeathNikki You dont know that she didnt try to find the original owner
+ its just as likely the first owner let them go on purpose, which is a death sentence to a house pet like a budgie
Well don’t bird owners have a band placed around their bird’s leg?
@@Kaytran97 Not always. I had a cockatiel once with no band, and one day she flew away and I never saw her again
@@Kaytran97 pet stores/breeders do that BS. bird parents can have a vet remove them if they have a bird with one, as they can cause some physically injuries and anxiety/mental problems. I adopted my birb, but if he had had one I would've had it removed right away. there are whole networks online of bird people who help other bird people get their birds back, because they escape just like other pets, but with birds no one else cares. She should've tried posting on bird groups. She said, "well he didn't have a band" as though that means someone abandoned him and that is NOT what that means. a lil guy that friendly was in a very happy household. still relieved she saved him and he's being well cared for again
This Parakeet just went out and adopted a human. She even bought him a cage and everything. Cute Bird Privileges
LMAOOOO
your profile image tho
Technically he's a budgie, you ain't wrong about the rest tho!
Yeah i dont think a someone want to abond a tam budgie so i think he flyes away ore some
Budgerigar ... not parakeet you philistine 😊
The head bobbing and chirping means he's happy. It means he's trying to get your attention, or is just happy.
No head bobbing is a mating dance for male budgies
@@a.lx._ 😏🕺
Edit:
The bird is showing of his moves
@@MirVuz Ah shoot !!
@@MirVuz Wha-?!
Budgies bob their heads all the time, both male and females. It is general behavior of excitement and curiosity. They do other stuff when they're in mating season
Man he was really really lucky to have found her, especially in a place like NYC where anything could happen to a small animal like that. Glad she took him in
small, 35 gram domesticated animal that keeps body temp up by eating. it's a miracle he survived... lucky fella. he was falling asleep as soon as he climbed on her shoulders.
Just for anyone who may not know, when birds head bob ( most domestic birds ) it means they are really happy. He’s a lucky bird for getting a great home, especially for someone who wasn’t very experienced at first :)
Budgies bobbing their heads up and down is a sign of happiness and excitement. He’s also trying to preen her as part of her flock. That’s so freaking cute 😭
Then would you dont but it?
@@athensroja what do you mean? The budgie in the video has an owner
@@UmarTahir So?
@@UmarTahir he was joking

Imagine how much bravery such tiny animals must have to approach us.
This is something I think about a lot myself. ❤️I feel so humbled for the trust that they give us.
If it was hand raised properly it can be tricked into believing we are the same species almost
He was special tho, he had experienced with humans before, so he knows that we can be friendly, other animals live in forest where it’s eat or be eaten, so those animals have no idea if we want them for a snak or just keep them for the benefit of not being lonely 🙂
Yea like I wouldn't approach a titan.
After watching this ive come to the realisation that these stories are not real. They took that bird to the park knowing it couldn't fly and made up a story of finding it. It was probably already owned by this lady. Its so easy to fool ppl these days
i lost a bird like this when i was 8 and im 23 now but he flew out of his cage by accident and went out the patio door.. its cool to see people takin in exotic animals since theyre not supposed to live in the wild in most parts of the US
Tout a fait Rei, J'en ai perdu aussi par accident, tous ses oiseaux ne sont pas abandonnés mais se sont sauvés malgré nous
But was it a budgie, because although the title Say's parakeet I believe it's a budgie, or am I mis specieing 😀
@@thereverendjones6110 they are the same
@@thereverendjones6110 budgies are a form of parakeet
You mean he escaped.
Sometimes you just have to squish them with your bare hands
I had a parakeet land on my chair at a park a couple of weeks ago. I posted everywhere online, called multiple vets, pet stores, and rescues in several surrounding cities.
Haven't heard from anyone about her so I'm taking care of her now ❤️
As a new yorker, thank goodness she managed to find him before a cat did
Or a rat did
As a NYer I can tell you have the downs
Nature spirits probably protected him till he was found🙂
Ay Im walkin here
Or died from the cold
Probably not abandoned but escaped. One of my parakeets got away when I was little. Was so worried and heartbroken. Knowing that she was able to save one gives me a glimmer of hope that mine was also saved.
Well many people release them unfortunately. It's a mixed pot. But the chances of finding an escaped or lost bird are very low. So all you can hope for is that they found a new safe home
I hope someone saved yours too. Dumb birds. Don’t leave! The humans miss you!!
Most likely
Make it 2 birds. This literally happened to me too. Scooped a budgie off the street near a park. Tried to find the owner but no luck. That was 2 years ago now. Our baby budge is happy and healthy
My bird I had as a kid got out and was gone for 2 days but we got lucky and he came back I still remember that day he was yelling at me form I tree I yelled his name and put my hand out and flew back to me I had that little guy for a few years after he was cool little guy
💙🐦💙 Never seen such a social parakeet. He knew he wouldn't be able to survive in the cold weather so he sought out help and she rescued him! 🐦
Many years ago I was hurrying to work when I felt I'd kicked something with my shoe, I couldn't see what due to the foot of snow on the ground. Turned out it was a yellow budgie. I was already running late for my bus to work but I couldn't just leave it there. So I grabbed the bird ran home and thrust it into my Dad's hands with "it's a budgie" before running from the house again.
Lord knows what he must have thought at the moment but he wrapped the budgie in a cloth and let it warm slowly by the coal fire we had at the time.
The bird got named Shell, since it was found next to the Shell Petrol station, and ended up with us for seven years until it died

Do NOT abandon birds, specially parrots. They are way too emotional over their bonds and abandoning them may scar them for life.
@Victoria She said that he maybe was.
Theres no proof it was abanonded the more likely case is that it accidentally flew off. Happens all too often.
Not all birds have leg bands, especially budgies.
That goes for every animal/pet
@Victoria true, but it's just good to know regardless, and good knowledge to share.
@g h So you're just going to assume the bird was abandoned? lol The majority of budgie owners don't put bands on their legs. I'm so confused as to how other people abandoning their animals, automatically means this budgie was abandoned.
If a bird selects someone it means that someone is surely special...
@Integrated Hate Spreader Lmaoo I think so🤣🤣
@Integrated Hate Spreader maybe they see you as one of them..
Or that you are starving and need help...😟
@@KOT-br3tk And here you are taking up space on an internet YT thread. We might ask you the same question! 😂
@@KOT-br3tk and here you are on the internet being a clown
Birds nibble on you to show affection and to show that they’re grateful for you ❤
Parakeets are so loving and smart. They can learn to talk with time and patience too. I had several of them for many years. He seems like a happy little fella.
Sometimes it doesn't even take time. I adopted another baby budgie earlier this year and the little chatterbox was talking within weeks! They're so smart.
Budgies are so loving. My budgie lived for 14 years and he was the fourth member of our family. I miss him to this day after 20 years!
Dang I’m so sorry. He must have been super sweet.
Have you ever held him/her
@@alexandriatrenier7366 Thanks mate, he was😌
@@nanbhugwant3504 Yeah all the time. He loved sleeping in my palm.
Yes. Parakeets have a life span of approx 15-years. You OBVIOUSLY took very good care of him. And your little bird was lucky in his genetics, and not catching any environmental issues.
I had a yellow parakeet once; cried like a baby when she died! 😢 Most people don’t realize that birds are full of personality even tiny little parakeets.
Not just personality, intelligence. They understand words, context, recognise people, have strong preferences.
Yes my pigeon i rescued is full of personality. Its amazing how smart they are .
Omg yes. I remember my friend had a parakeet that was sick. It was old so I took it from her to bring it to a bird hospital. It died right when we pulled up in front of the place. I held it in my hands and cried my heart out. I was pregnant at the time too and my hormones were all crazy so it hit me even harder. The guy took his body from me and buried him 😞.
Your not alone😪😔
I love parakeets, such wonderful birds. I miss my ChiChi 😭
So awesome! They say we often meet angels and don’t know it. Well, this bird and this woman both met their special angel. May they live happily ever after.
Her bird seems so happy. What a fortunate occurrence to have met in the park! Best wishes to you.
"setting free" a pet/tropical bird in this environment is not a thing. They'll starve to death, the bird is way better off being rehomed. I'm glad she took her in, I hope she actually was abandoned and didn't just fly out someone's window
Yeah. I hope the lady tried to reach out and find the original owners. Abandoned or escaped, it would've died out there without help!! Such friendly little bird, too. I feel bad for whoever lost it.
Actually i also had a budgie but it flew out through the ventilation holes in the walls while every one was having breakfast, he never came back. I loved him so much
@@ashoksaha4527 awh, I'm so sorry. I hope he's alright :(
Parakeets are actually quite capable to survive in colder climates. They are now an invasive species in quite a few areas that are far away from tropical regions. Of course this bird wouldn't have been able to survive all by himself but larger flocks actually do.
@@moladiver6817 I wasn't talking about the climate, I meant it food vise. Pretty mean to tell someone their bird is dead :/
That bird was fairly young when she first found him, and for a young budgie to be so friendly and trusting, they usually have to be hand-raised from birth. He likely escaped from a breeder. And one more thing... Not all pet budgies have leg bands!! In fact, most don't. I've had 8 of them and only one ever had a band, and I couldn't even read the number on it.
I certainly hope he wasn't abandoned. That thought is distressing
I have 10 parakeets and most don't have leg bands because our original birds layed them as eggs
glitternation?
Yes this
@@navyncslol2282 i'm... uhh no this is patrick
Budgies are very smart and loving. You are very very lucky to have one that found you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sometimes you pick a pet. Sometimes pets pick you. I'm so glad she brought him home and made him part of her life. Those little birds are so fragile.
They are also one of the cutest too. I love them.
This another proof that we don't always choose our feathered and furry friends, sometimes they choose us! ❤️

Hello
This is like a Pixar movie in real life 🥰 like budgie gets abandoned by owners, surviving on the streets, girl finds him & they fall in love!
Yeah thats incredible
oh stfu
@Pamela you're right 😂
I've 7 Budgies, i love'em so much.
The bird is so lucky and the woman is so kind hearted 💖💖
They are the most sweetest, loving, caring angels I have seen in the world. They are cute smart lovely they deserve a lot in this world
I don't think the budgie was abandoned. He's so sweet and trusting, so my guess is that he escaped from a loving home by accident. I'm glad he was rescued, but if I found a pet bird I'd first try to find the owner. I kind of hope they see this video so they know their baby is alive and happy.
True, but finding the owner in a city as big as NYC is impossible.
I live in a big city myself, and when people lose a pet, they often put some notes on lamp poles or other places. People that found a pet could also do this in the neighbourhood where they found the pet. And social media is always a possibility as well, of course.
@Victoria So true.
@@daviddou1408 It was a baby in the beginning since its cere or nose was pink. It only turned blue near the end of the video.
He was your special gift from God.
As an owner of 9 parakeets, I am astonished on now calm and content he looks! So used to his environment and not scared and skittish at all. What a sweetie!! You just make an absolute best friend! Thank you so much for saving him and giving him a chance to live a happier life
He was beat by other birds in the park he approach to her to find protection as he know that with ppl will be safe.
I had the same case as lady on video, the bird live foer 7 years it was wonderful friendship.
I adore parakeets
Me too i own 6 and i love them even if they are all sassy
Well said 😍
I'm surprised at that too. Usually parakeets are nervous wrecks when there is a huge change.
This is the sweetest story. So glad Brooke rescued and kept Baby.
OMG I'm crying this is such a great story. You're really blessed to find such a tiny loving creature in your life. I hope you enjoy him as much as he loves you.
As I person who had pet budgies who were not nearly as friendly as this one, I’d say this little guy was a lucky find
Yes me too….😢😢 my first budgie isn’t really friendly
I have two budgies, and they are not friendly at all. I don't know what to do 😭 I want them to love me so badly.
For him it’s either be friendly or starve in the park
@@katrao1501 Watch some Birds Tricks videos on UA-cam. Heaps of useful tips. I may take a lot of time and patience though :)
@@katrao1501your problem is you got a pair. If the bird is alone it will bond with you but when paired with another it gets difficult. You can introduce but imprinting should be done with you
Considering that this budgie was already so use to humans by how it reacted when it saw her I wouldn't say the budgie was abandoned but lost instead. Not all budgies have leg bands on them when you buy them.
Yes, this parakeet is very very tame and friendly....more so than usual
where i live, you HAVE to have leg bands on ur pet birds incase they do get lost
She tried to find the owners, if you look on tiktok. However she couldn't find them
You do know parakeets don’t live in the wild where she lives so yeah it was definitely let go
@@verticaleditz6473 or it got lost... birds can get out.
What a sweet birdie. He melted my heart when he ran to you.
this budgie is lucky to find it's own partner. amazing!
For those of you thinking it’s rude to keep the bird, how is she supposed to find the owner in a city with millions of people? Those birds can fly (it does in her house). It’s could have come from any borough.
...You ask on community forums or pages if someone is missing a parrot and have them describe it so only the ones actually missing it can retrieve it. :( Bird was someonee's family and with how friendly he was to her, his family definitely loved him. I'm glad she adopted him but at the same time it breaks my heart. Someone broke into my house and stole my two parakeets and years later I still wish someone would have returned them.
@@HyliaFell 😞
They not it FYI
Don’t call living animals or anything living it…
@@kikio2067 I’m sure the bird is reading these comments and *they’re* very offended.

Hi jess
Hello 👋
'Parakeet uses cuteness.'
It's very effective.
This is exactly how I ended up being a bird lover/owner. Same thing happened to me. It changed me forever becoming best friends with him. Now I am a proud owner of three budgies and I love them. I just had to get him some friends.
That’s sooo cute aww 🥰💓
That's amazing! These little birds are the most overlooked and amazing creatures. I have a couple myself and they have so much love to give. It's a totally different paradigm than interacting with dogs or cats, and it's really rewarding as an owner.
This makes me so happy!! I had two parakeets that I gave to my mom when I had to go to Korea in 1986. She spoiled them and cared for them. They lived to be Harold 9, and Archie 10 years old. I taught Harold to talk. They are smart and loving creatures!
Poor little fluff was so exhausted.
Seeing him run to her for help, so cute.
He was also cold, I guess he hasn't been outside for long. I don't think they can survive continental winters. The rule is - if the temperature is fine for you (as in naked), it's fine for them.
i cannot believe a bird that sweet and calm was abandoned. i would imagine it most likely accidently escaped and got lost.
it probably just found an open window and got out. its super tame and curious towards her wich means he was hand raised and well loved
@@Lucifer-do7mf Yeah i thought the same... Not all birds wear a leg band, especially small ones. I hope this wasn't someone's lost bird that she decided to keep without even looking for the owner :/ Not sure why you wouldn't even consider the bird to simply be lost
My likely got out by it self for a fry and never looked back. Being in a cage for so long their wings get weak, then they get tired.
@@ppoverheat6223 maybe because she’s uninformed on all the things y’all noticed or are aware of tht bring y’all to the conclusion the budgie is “lost”. It’s like people think she was intentionally being daft and purposely didn’t look for an owner, when most likely she didn’t even consider tht after she saw no leg tag (and Ik those two don’t correlate, but you think she knows that? Probably not. Even I as a budgie owner (I’ve had 5 in my life,none atm ) didn’t know tht wasn’t the case, so when she said it I ain’t even question it. It wasn’t till I came into the comments and saw ppl deliberating bout her honesty did I know tht leg bands aren’t for locating owners and they should b taken off)
yea I feel for the budgies og owner - but it isn’t her fault for not finding them. If anything the budgie is lucky to be alive cuz a budgie of mine that escaped was killed within hours (my friend found its body in her backyard cuz a hawk got to him :/)
@moonstone.mp4 Good to know she tried to find them!
😪😪😪 you are angel to take that precious bird into your home and show it the love and attention he deserves bless you
This is so sweet I'm gonna cry
That little parakeet is living a true Cinderella story. It's so great that he was found by the perfect person to give him a loving home and beautiful life. ❤️
Think
If have this bird a lot in garden park , maybe wow 🤩❤️❤️❤️
Life is like that. She said she's afraid of birds take a look what God sends her lol. We must face our challenges no matter how big or small. So good to have a friend.

I actually rescued a parakeet that flew down onto my head from a tree in a mountain neighborhood. She lived about 12 years after I rescued her... She was needy her entire life, but was very happy when she (I) finally got a friend to live with... I named her Primrose and she was a goofball. Just lost her last year after her best friend passed, and I really miss them both.

Aw :( but just be happy that you gave her the best birdie life ever :)

@@ds_the_rn Hello
He's so loving and playful. Glad he has a new home ❤
Oh, I hope the person that lost him sees this one day! I imagine he escaped and they were very sad and afraid that something awful happened to him. He's so adorable.
He was so scared and cold that he went right up to her, knowing a human could help ❤😭
Ikr 😭😭😭
this hit me hard bc i have parakeets myself
i dont know if it was abandoned or lost because sometimes my birds fly around near the window
It's incredible how loving these birds are. A lot of people don't realize that birds develop real relationships with people. They aren't just animals that you stick in a cage and admire. They need interaction and affection, just like a dog or cat, and they return it just like a dog or cat. It's fascinating when it is your first bird or it was for me.
You are right. I loved my budgie Charlie so very much. He was so affectionate, and said a lot of words and phrases too. When he died suddenly at age seven I was so shocked and bereft.
@@lorraine9242 That is so sad you lost him so young. I am so sorry and I know how awful it makes you feel. XXXOOO
I adopted mine 3 years ago. She is my heart. Lots of parrots need forever homes.
So true! 'ADOPT DON'T SHOP' Just a good mantra for our time.. They euthanize dogs, cats AND birds at the Humane Society unfortunately.
Do people cage animals to admire them? That’s like people who did not conceive slaves were actually people. Yes, of course animals have feelings, a personality and intelligent but most importantly are pure expressions of love!
Based on the lines on his little forehead, he’s just a baby and indeed a boy due to his blue top beak. 💙 Budgerigars are sooo cute!! 💕💕

@@HeeHee-kh1ez Not all budgies have leg bands, most budgies don’t. My two didn’t when I bought them.
@@HeeHee-kh1ez I have two budgies and they don’t have leg bands? Just because a bird doesn’t have a leg band doesn’t mean it’s abandoned. Budgies are very scared birds and it takes time and patience to tame them, that bird looked VERY TAME to be able to come up to someone like that and let them touch him. I’m sure if she atleast put a simple add or tried looking for the owner she would’ve found it.
@@spyfalls_ Bands are usually only found on budgies that come from breeders, pet store budgies (especially from shitty big chain pet stores) are less likely to be banded because they're mass bred
An adorable pair, I'm so glad they found each other. Best wishes to both!
Guess it was meant to be. The little guy sure does appear quite content with his newfound mama!! Great little story! 😊
When I was little our parakeet escaped. We were all very sad. This makes me feel better that maybe someone found him and took him in as this lady did. This little guy really lucked out.
The same thing actually happened to me, so I understand that you were very sad.
And not all budgies have leg bands... I think this one escaped and not abandoned...
@@queen_of_4 Most likely, but at least she saved him instead of just hoping the original owners found him. I've heard of budgies flying quite a ways from home..
I wish I could think the same about our rabbits but I doubt it a predator probably killed it days after it escaped since they were both white and I live in a tropical country😢
I once found a budgie just like this one on the beach getting ready to fly out to see. Took the little fella home with me. Luckily I'd just gotten another budgie, so they had a pal! Even though it made them alot harder to train.
My parakeet recently passed away and he was the sweestest bird ever and I will forever miss him. So glad this little guy found you.

They are great companions. Once my wife and I almost run over a parakeet that flew in front of our car as night was approaching in San Francisco winter, he looked like the one on the video. We stopped and my wife got off the car to only to have the parakeet jump on to her finger!! We took him home and drove around the next day to see if anybody had put up any notices of a missing parakeet; he must've wonder away from his home, he spoke something that sounded like Japanese and Italian! We had a 14 year old Maine Coon cat that could never accept other cat, as hard as we tried, but slowly we introduced the parakeet to our cat and they became best friends and shared great moments together. We named the parakeet Lucky and he had such a huge personality - just wonderful. Both passed away some years ago - we missed them.
Aww, I got my parakeet (fancy parakeet, shown in the video) for $50. Yet all the equipment was around $120. Anyways, my brother was begging me to hold him (he was in the carrier box), which I let him hold the box, and he was texting on his phone and dropped the carrier. I named him Lucky, since he was and still is a baby.
You are good people, Sir.
I dont mean to be rude. But u should never introduce your pet bird to a cat. Don't let your bird be with a cat.
@@rajappanbalachandar2626I have the same opinion, it's pretty lucky their cat accepted the bird. My cat is a sweetheart, but he would def injure birds. He already brought two wild birds home which he didn't injure to actually penetrate them with this bite, but plucking feathers and treating it like a toy. No consideration whatsoever. It's an instinct thing. If any cat is able to accept it's natural food source as a friend, thats rly lucky.
That's a well socialized and, most likely, well loved little budgie. I think he probably escaped and someone is missing him. So glad he found you - he wouldn't have survived much longer.
Yea I guess the same
He didnt have a leg band, though.
She definitely should have tried at least to find the owner. The owner is probably very distressed.
@@FukaiKokoro as a bird owner I can relate to that....but it's difficult to find the owner
@@Nolongerusingthisaccount123 neither does mine. She pulled it off, so I’m probably going to get a new one for her just in case :(
You have a true friend there. He knows who saved his life and will love you for the rest of his little life. Love him with all you heart. I have 3 cockatiels and 3 budgies and i lost one recently and it broke my heart but i wouldnt trade a single moment of time i had with him for anything.
He was so lost in the woods, nice to see how happy he is now
He wasn't lost, he just needed to be found by a special someone.
❤❤❤
He looked lost af tho
I once found a squirrel baby I took him home and it was so unbelievable how much we bonded sadly he had to leave on day rip peanut
He probably was lost. He obviously feels very safe around humans and has definetly been loved before. He probably escaped and his former owner worries about him.
The fact that the cage is going to kill the bird anyways The cage is so small and the perch is going to give them bumble foot the fact that after she got them and did no research is really worrying me and feeding the budgie bread!!!!! NO! It's going to get fatty liver. Anndddddd- she made an excuse that oh no band. Birds are not tamed like this it had to be a few years with the real owner for it to be tamed like this.
So sweet. Glad she found Baby. They truly are birds of a feather.
Jesus loves you
It is so difficult to reconnect lost birds with their owners, and honestly as long as she tried looking in lost bird websites, it was probably the best call to keep him and give him a loving family.
little dude is absolutely living his best life
It must've been very scary and stressful for that parakeet to try to survive on its own.
Oh my God, the way he ran up to her is adorable
My country doesn’t have this birds. This bird adorable 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I know!!! I love birds so, so much and I immediately started tearing up
This is emotional and heartwarming to see. Today I lost my budgie and buried her and I miss her. This woman is incredible for taking great care for this little guy
Aw ... what a smart little baby ... he saw you and knew he had to get help ... thank you for saving the cutie
My sister-in-law was sitting at a picnic table when a parakeet landed out of nowhere. They escape easily. I think people get so used to them being around and forget not to open doors.
i could have left my window open for days, my ol little budgie was too lazy to fly away lol
I lost one of our two when I put the cage outside but forgot to close the cage door. I hope someone found him and a big bird didn't eat him.
That's why you are suppose to clip the wing feathers on one wing - so they don't fly away.
@@tmross4 clipping their wings leads to depression. You don’t clip your birds wings. Ever.
@@tmross4 Clipping the wings isnt the problem mate, its how you should always keep doors that lead outside shut and always keep your windows closed when your budgie is around. Please do not clip your budgies wing.
Why would anyone abandon this adorable birdie? I mean like this has got to be the cutest parakeet ever! 🙁
He could have just got away & the leg band thing doesn't matter if he was home bred.
New Yorks a big place full of sky scrappers he could have flown out of one of a million or more windows. He looked in good condition the kinds of people that abandon animals usually have birds that have stress pulled out half their feathers.
@@KOT-br3tk Not gonna lie that twist at the end made me actually lol.
Most of them scape . We lost 1. The one in the video is a male
@@KOT-br3tk low level troll 👎
that is a very well-trained and well taken care of bird. the most likely scenario is that someone left his window open or didn't check for a second and he got away. a bird this tame definitely has someone looking for him because you just don't get those results if he has ever been misstreated
That parakeet was so lucky to meet a beautiful woman like you to show it much love God Bless
You are lucky to have such a lovely pet who loves you.
Good on her for checking if he had a leg band, a lot of people sadly wouldn't do that or know what it means
Yes but many budgies if bought from a pet store don't have leg bands. My little girl Smokey doesn't have one.
I got my guy from a reputable breeder who didn't use leg bands. She said it wasn't recommended anymore and this was over 10yrs ago.
When we bought our Amazon parrot from a pet shop 34 years ago, it had a leg band because it had been brought into the country (USA) under quarantine. We brought our bird to an avian vet who removed the leg band. We have had many other birds but none of them ever had a leg band. Incidentally, our Amazon is doing fine. The average life expectancy is 45 years so it is a very long time commitment.
I doubt that he was abandoned. He must have escaped through a window left open by mistake. He is very happy with his new mum!💕
In my movie brain I see a cute guy that sees his escaped bird on this video. He contacts the cute girl and they live happily ever after 👩❤️👨🐦
And i hate to be that person, but it's also possible that this was staged. 😒
@@ryotaarai3816 What? Why you say that 🤔
@@natalymariscal8520 because sadly , many rescue videos these days are staged :/ sad but true. always be a bit sceptical
having your first kiss with a parakeet, perfect.
Changing each other’s lives for the better….very nice
None of my budgies have leg bands on them. Maybe he was lost because he seems to be so used to humans and that means the previous owner had him tamed. It's rare that people abandon a tamed budgie. The abandoned ones are usually untamed and the reason they are abandoned is that the owner gave up on trying to tame them cuz it took too much time.
Yeah, I reckon this Budgie escaped out of an open window. It happens all the time, especially when a dog or a cat or kid opens a door & doesn't close it. Brooke finding Baby was a great thing to happen. Also, Brooke is so adorable, type of lass I'd like to buy a drink for.
Yeah she was supposed to report that she found the bird or put posters up saying she found him
@@nightsphenom7122 it's obviously someone elses pet.. l don't rekn she knows what a budgerigar is.. it's an Aussie desert bird..
Bet some poor bastards missing their pet.
Exactly. She likely stole someone's beloved pet 😔
@@jen2804 hahaha.. budgie smuggler!
I lost my pet parrot a couple years ago when she accidentally flew out the window my dad left open. I miss her everday & I'm so worried she's still out there alone and scared. I hope just like in this video that someone special found her and took her in.
Miss you, Rocky
Exact same thing happened to me!!!
Sad I hope somebody found her! ✨
I think your parrot probably eventually flew in another window somewhere. Twice in my life I witnessed a lost parakeet flying in through someone's window. I think what happens is that they remember flying out a window and how it generally looked like but they're unable to recognize which window it was (especially in big apartment buildings) so they just give it a try hoping they will land back home.
@@ruwinheredhether3347 so sad :(
I’m sorry for your loss of your parrot, Rocky. I’m sure Rocky is living a great life with someone else. Like another poster said, they fly IN another window like they flew out. Nobody said they found a bird cuz they wanted to keep Rocky. I hope someday you get closure. All my best to you and Rocky, wherever she is.
Oh my gosh this brings tears to my eyes, this is the most sweetest thing I've ever seen, bless you for giving this little baby a loving home 💖💖💖
Bless you for keeping him. He loves you so much!
I'm glad the budgie found a safe place, but I do feel bad for the previous owner. I'm sure they miss this beautiful baby.
Or they just abandoned the bird..
@@graleh That rarely happens and doesn't seem the case here. Parakeets are extremely skiddish and it takes a lot of time and effort to train them to be friendly towards people, which this one seemed to be. Many don't have leg bands either, so it's not really indicative of anything that the parakeet doesn't have one. What likely happened is the little one escaped and became lost. They're highly intelligent and can be mischievous little escape artists.
@@graleh Sincerely doubt it. I am a long time bird owner/rescuer. Very very few people dump birds into the air. They usually take them to a shelter or leave them at the vet. This one was probably somebody's pet who flew out a window in a microsecond.
@@brittanygale8926 LMAO, your logic is like "oh you had a miscarriage? well!! just adopt a new one" god, you're heartless
I don't know how that bird ended up alone in New York. I know the young lady saved his life, and that he's happy and healthy. The rest is useless conjecture.
He is so sweet, I don’t believe someone let him go, he must have accidentally escaped.
But I’m glad that he found you! 🥰
Hello, how are you doing Hope you’re having a wonderful day!
@@tylerjakes6674 same to you.
I thought maybe too at first, but the band was missing, the only way i can see that being possible is if someone removed it so that when someone else found the bird they wouldnt be able to track the previous owners
@@ash_ley333 Most pet birds don't have bands in the first place... I'm not sure about budgies though.
@@BearsyMai mine do, i think they all do if they are from petsmart, not sure about other bird stores
Bless you for rescuing him.
What a beautiful creature! My inlaws had a lovely little bird for years...we used to keep her when they were away. She was lovely company as we had no baby then, she was talkative and musical. She knew who was coming in by the sound of their car, and had different greetings for everyone!!!
This channel is full of real life Disney Princesses and Princes, and I am living for it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for giving Baby another chance at life. Budgies are more intelligent than they are given credit for
I was just thinking this. My boyfriend ran into one in the same fashion & gift him to me as a surprise. I bawled my eyes out because they are sooo loving & im trying to teach him to talk 😢.
@@BxgorJess absolutely and they need a lot of enrichment and simulation because of it. It makes me so sad to see them in cages all the time. They're great little babies, it's a shame they don't live that long :'(
I hope your bebbe is happy, well, and thrivin!
@@JoanWhack I knowww! It’s hard to keep up w depression but, they also make me happy & their soft chirps wake me up peacefully in the mornings. Got 2 more budgies so he wouldn’t be alone. Now they all seem happier 😭🥰.
@Victoria I see you everyfuckingwhere insulting this poor woman wtf- chill! What if the bird died?! You know, cats and other bigger birds ARE a thing. But no, I'm sure you'd prefer the bird's death, wouldn't ya?
I'm pretty sure that they have an instagram account, assuming that it escaped, the owner could've reached out. Did they? No! Let them be. As long as the animal isn't abused(which CLEARLY isn't) you should chill tf out. She here doesn't say many details, we really don't know IF she tried to find the owner and used the leg band thing as last resort. At least the bird is happy and NOT dead, I'm 100% sure that the "owner"(assuming that it escaped) would be happier seeing that their pet is alive and happy than finding his lifeless body somewhere near the house.
I doubt he was abandoned but probably got out and got lost. He's really lucky he found you. From seeing how he is he was most likely hand raised and treated very well before in his previous home. You may want to see if somebody in the area has reported him missing.
You did the best thing to protect the bird , god bless you and may he protect you
Beautiful little birdy, it’s common for pet birds to escape, luckily this lady is taking good care of him ❤️
He wasn't abandoned. He escaped his home. Miine did this is upstate NY. Miraculously mine returned a year later, and the only way he survived is someone like you took him in.
Omg! Are you serious!? She came home? That's the sweetest thing I've ever heard of!
Unfortunately there are alot of people who think it is a fantastic idea to let birds go as well as them escaping. I have even seen a video of a young guy finding a lost cockatiel where I live and actually putting it on a wild bird feeder and leaving it because "birds need to be free" even while that bird was obviously asking for help. Not everyone has common sense when it comes to birds.
Also not all birds have tags around their feet. He could have escaped like you said and now she is just keeping him.
Hello , my budgie escaped more than 2 weeks ago in the country side where i grew up ....on a warm day ,,,2 days later it became very cold even snow .... i had to leave .. Im VERY UPSET by this ....anyone ?? xxx
@UCjVK8i-TjZNbH2Fn-TfYRfw all my small birds don't have legs bands except one I brought off a breeder. Not all breeder band their birds though
