Budgerigar Council of South Australia (BCSA)

There are few things more therapeutic than caring for an animal, and we love our budgies at the BCSA. Moreover, John Gould characterised budgerigars as “the most animated, cheerful little creatures you can possibly imagine” in the 1800s. Admittedly, we think he could not have been any more right. Over time, the budgerigar has evolved into one of the world’s most popular pets and parrots. Moreover, we can’t get enough of these adorable little birds at the Budgerigar Council of South Australia (BCSA).

Budgerigar enthusiasts will find our website a great way to connect with others who share their common interest in Pet, Colony or Show Budgies. To that end, within these pages are a multitude of images of Budgie Club members from all around the state. You could find their exhibition stud, right through to their beloved pets. Additionally, uncover contact information for all of the clubs in South Australia that collectively make up The Budgerigar Council of South Australia (BCSA). You could find nearby individuals who share your interest in this pastime, as well as the times and locations where they come together to discuss their points of view and share their ideas. At certain times of the year, you may even be able to buy budgies at these meetups.
