Re: Fly free Polly - RIP


I think it was a very good age for a budgie Eileen. I am no expert, but it seems to me that they either last about 3 years or they go on for around 12. When I was a small child, my mother had 2 budgies, one (the friendly nice budgie) died around age 3 and the grumpy grouchy one lasted until 12. I have to say that Polly was a budgie of the grumpy sort, but she did chirrup and sing especially when the birds outside did.

Thanks everyone. I will tell MIL that you have sent your respects.

My Mom's budgie, Captain Flint (weird name) was the grumpy sort; think he must have been about twelve. Bit everyone but her! Rather touching, he passed away a short time after Mom died......
