Or how about a bird? A parrot or a budgie? We have both.

A：或者一只鸟怎么样？鹦鹉还是虎皮鹦鹉？我们都有。

Yes, but budgies don't need as much space as parrots, do they?

C: 是的，但是虎皮鹦鹉不需要像鹦鹉那样大的空间，是吗？

Some budgies have even been known to develop vocabularies of hundreds of words.

一些虎皮鹦鹉甚至可以形成数百个单词的词汇表。

Budgies are very popular because they are so easy to keep.

虎皮鹦鹉很受欢迎， 因为它们很容易饲养。

The small fish swirl like the budgies, and for the same reason.

像鹦鹉一样 鱼群一同旋转。

These results mimicked an earlier study in which Gallup's team showed that budgie parakeets yawned more in cool temperatures than they did in hot temperatures.

这些结果模仿了早期的一项研究，盖洛普的团队表明鹦鹉长尾小鹦鹉在凉爽的温度下比在炎热的温度下打哈欠更多。

Expert imitators like the African Grey parrot have much larger shell regions and smaller cores than copycats who are less skilled like budgies and peach face lovebirds.

像非洲灰鹦鹉这样的专业模仿者比虎皮鹦鹉和桃脸爱情鸟等技能较低的模仿者拥有更大的外壳区域和更小的核心。

It comes as a surprise to many, but the tiny budgies (also known as budgerigars or simply as parakeets) can actually talk as well if not better than some larger parrot species.

这让很多人感到惊讶， 但这些微小的虎皮鹦鹉（也被称为虎皮鹦鹉或简称为长尾小鹦鹉）实际上也能说话， 如果不比一些较大的鹦鹉物种好的话。

Just like any type of bird, not all budgies will learn to talk, so please don't adopt one solely on the basis of wanting a talking bird — and that goes for all species.

就像任何一种鸟一样，并不是所有的虎皮鹦鹉都会学会说话，所以请不要仅仅因为想要一只会说话的鸟而收养一只虎皮鹦鹉——所有物种都是如此。
