Budgerigars, or budgies, have long captured the hearts of bird enthusiasts, and their charm often extends into the media. For the Australian National Budgerigar Council (ANBC), these media features play a vital role in raising awareness and appreciation for these remarkable birds. Whether through television, radio, or online articles, stories about budgies bring attention to their intelligence, vibrant personalities, and beauty, often sparking interest in breeding, care, and showing.
The ANBC welcomes this spotlight as it helps promote the hobby and highlights the achievements of local breeders and exhibitors. Media coverage of budgie shows, competitions, and unique budgie stories—such as the Nationals, National winning birds or remarkable breeding accomplishments—helps build excitement around the community. These stories not only encourage participation in ANBC events but also educate the broader public about the care, genetics, and commitment involved in keeping and breeding these iconic birds.
Thanks to our partners at Media Stable for their wonderful support in making this happen.
