The Budgie's Nest

Len and Larry hear a budgie squawking so they decide to go and find out where the sound is coming from.

Younger brother Les sees them hopping away so he decides to follow. He likes to join in the activities with his twin brothers. It is not long before they come across the budgie perched on a boot. The budgie is making a nest in the boot. Les is standing on the toe of the boot and is peeping inside the boot. The nest is not complete yet.

A week later Len and Larry leave their house without Les knowing and go to visit the place where they saw the budgie on the boot. They come closer to the boot and they can see the nest has been made and there are two eggs in the nest. As the get closer they hear a squawking in the sky. They look up and see the budgie circling around them. She doesn’t look happy to see the rabbits so close to her nest, so they quickly hop home.

The following week Len and Larry hop towards the budgie boot nest without Les knowing. They find the boot which has rolled over to its side. The mother budgie is there and tells them that the wind blew the boot over and the eggs fell out of the nest and broke. She tells them that she is going to build another nest and it will be in a tree.

On their way home they see their friend the fantail who is twittering to another bird. The birds are saying they can’t believe the budgie would make a nest so low to the ground. They are sorry that her eggs broke when the wind blew the boot over and are happy to hear that the next nest will be in a tree.
