Vacuum cleaner, sucks up budgie

Fingerboard industry sure has been good to all the small birds who have always dreamed of taking up the sport. Why should dogs have all the fun? The Sun has a feature on skateboarding budgies, AKA parakeets here in the U.S..

WHO-ooosh a clever boy! A budgie proudly shows off his latest cheep trick – SKATEBOARDING.
The pet is one of 13 taught to use tiny boards by budgie fan Trieste Visier, 35. It took her months – but she said at her home in Sydney, Australia, yesterday: “Training these little guys was a great deal of fun.” Her birds can even do the same skateboarding stunts as humans. OK dudes, it may not be street sport – but it’s certainly TWEET sport.

Stop it! Stop it! My sides are aching…

Meanwhile, Nature’s Chest Bird Shop has a line of Hot Rod Racer Skateboards for larger birds.

The large size Champion Hot Rod Racer Skateboard is super fun for medium and larger parrots. The smaller bird sized skateboard racer is more appropriate for parrots such as Timneh Greys, smaller Amazons and smaller Cockatoos and similar sized parrots. The larger size is for all larger parrots from Amazon size up.

They aren’t cheap though, the small one is $27 and the larger one is $39.
