It's up for you to get thru better relationships with your bird, for it is, what you make it so. Before knowing it, at a slightest trait overlook, this bird in your cage could create havocs of anxiety and frustrations in your life. Aside from the amount of time that you have to invest on your parrot, you also have to consider the finances involved. Birds in general are not expensive to take care of. However, there is still a marked difference between feeding larger parrots and smaller parrots. In addition to that, larger birds would definitely make a larger mess. Again, we go back to the time factor but this time around, it is all about cleaning up the cages and making sure that they have fresh food and water. The Canary sometimes called the Island Canary is a small bird in the finch family. This bird is native to the Azores, the Canary Islands, and Madeira. The bird was named after the Canary Islands, not the other way around. The origins of the name "Canary" are in dispute but may be derived from the Latin canaria, "of the dogs", referring to the numerous dogs kept by the inhabitants of the islands. It is 12.5-13.5 cm long, with a wingspan of 20-23 cm and a weight of 15-20 g. It is yellow-green, with brownish streaking on its back. It is about 10% larger, longer and less contrasted than its relative the Serin, and has more grey and brown in its plumage and relatively shorter wings. The song is a silvery twittering like the Goldfinch. Its habitat is semi-open areas such as orchards and copses, where it nests in bushes or trees, from sea level up to 1,500 m altitude.
