Oh so this is cause of concern outside of Australia? Wait until you hear about budgie smugglers mate
Even with Australia’s strict biosecurity enforcement we are powerless to stop the budgie smugglers.
I don’t understand. What’s so offensive about showing a little sock?
I always forget the rest of the world doesn’t seem to know about the insane number of parrots we have. Then a tourist sees a cocky or a flock of rosellas and loses their shit.
tbh i would also lose my mind if a local told me to “look out for a cock-or-two”
be aware that in certain suburbs they are most definitely not talking about birds
Hell yeah, I get swarms of king parrots turn up and they’re majestic.
Should look up the Australian Budgie Smuggler species.
Real terrifying one, that. Anything and everything flies in Australia.
It’s cocks, isn’t it?
No. It’s Speedos.
In the analogy, budgies are cocks.
What else have people learned through Bluey?
Australian slang.
I have learned that there are animals called potoroos and bilbies.
You don’t have parakeets in euromerica?
There’s a population of parakeets living in the wild in Bridgeport, Connecticut that escaped from a pet shop delivery truck
English cities are surprisingly full of parakeets recently.
TIL that a budgie is just a small parrot.
Cockatiels, too. They flock! Imagine the sound.
