The Budge had quite the personality. He loved laughter, chirping along with laugh tracks on TV. He enjoyed a good stare down, which he always won with a slight head tilt. He loved hanging out with his plastic cage mate and gazing out the window. Overall, The Budge was a pleasant addition to the family.
One sunny day, Mr. Main decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and clean The Budge's cage outside… One swift swoop and The Budge was gone.
The cage was left outside, door open, in hopes of The Budge’s return but The Budge had other plans.
The next week, a family friend saw a white budgie with some sparrows... and so the legend grew...
It only made sense that The Budge's next steps would be to learn the ways of the carrier pigeon and start a whole career for himself, delivering lighthearted, colourful designs as the one and only, Carrier Budge.
