You were robbed.  There is NO SUCH THING!  Remember it this way:

In spite of all temptations 
  to belong to other nations
Budgerigars remain AUSTRALIAN!

(along with cockatiels, scarlet chested parrots, bourke parrots, princess
parrots, sulphur crested cocatoos, galahs &c &c..  (sheesh)) 

Bill Venables, hoisting the flag on this Australia day weekend. :-)
