  A budgie's ear A healthy budgie's ears are hidden underneath the feathers. They are located on the left and on the right side of the head, just diagonally beneath the eyes. Budgies don't have caps; their ears are simple holes in their skulls. One can see the ears for example when a budgie is soaking wet after taking a bathe or when the bird is heavily molting. During their first days of their lives, young budgies don't have feathers, so the ears are easy to see.
