I really love Merlin's blue coloration it is so hard to get in pictures. The true beauty can not be captured. On top of it he has the pretty white downy feathers all in with the blue it seems making him look like a fluffy cloud.

 

 

Check out the deepness of the blue in his tail

 

Did I hear the word Buddha Budgie (oh no another one Karen)....so I am a little FLUFFY

His face reminds me a pug dog or someone put an iron on it and flattened it, it always looks like that (Laughing out loud) minus the fluf

yes, Merlin has very vibrant blue to him, pretty bird

He really is gorgeous Lovey! I LOVE blue budgies. He looks almost violet in the first picture. I stopped in the petshop to get some cuttlebone today and there was a budgie that reminds me of Merlin. I think Max's brother is still there too. Looks just like Max. I wish someone would soon buy him. I hate to see them in the petshops for so long in those tiny little cages.

Back to Merlin - more pics anytime

He is beautiful lovey

Thanks ladies

Shawn, Nerwen said he is a violet so good eye .

Yes, I can't keep going back because that is when you end up taking them home on the fourth time around because you feel bad for them

I like a budgie with attitude !!

Has he been chasing parked cars Lovey ??

it's all those steriods...

His face reminds me a pug dog or someone put an iron on it and flattened it

I was actually thinking of a Shitzu, but now you mention it.. Yup i can see the Pug

Merlin is such a cutie flat face and all Actually i do think its rather cute how they do the flat face thing (Laughing out loud)...

:(Laughing out loud): total I agree Una

I know my baby..but Pretty still rules the squirt, did you see my other post A Secret check it out.

Awww, those English budgies are just such gentle giants.. I do love their temperament..

 

Oh, yes I read the other 'secret'... I didn't want to go there, but I just couldn't help it anymore... had to take a peek!!! (Laughing out loud)

Your right I love having the 2 varieties there is a big difference.

Merlin is like having a St. Bernard and Pretty is like having a toy poodle get where I am coming from. When he sits on my finger now he gets all chirpy and flighty before he was quiet when he was the lone bird and Merlin just looks at him crossed eyed. Like man what is wrong with you
