ArchivesRe: For a blue budgie?
in reply to a message by Delia
Well, since he's an Australian bird, let's get ethnic ... Australian humans with red hair are nicknamed Blue, so a blue Australian could be known as Rusty or Ginger.

My guess is your guess!
Australia is a mystery to me - I've never been there - but I've always thought that the surname books were wrong - you know, the ones that say that the first Mr Nightingale had a marvellous singing voice and the first Mr Short was short. My belief is that the first Mr Nightingale was tone-deaf and the first Mr Short was probably six foot six. Like Little John in the Robin Hood stories!
