Canary Islands

Geographical area
As its name suggests, the Canary originates from the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago located off the coast of Morocco and Western Sahara.

It is now widely used around the world.

Breed History
The description of the Canary was made by the Swedish naturalist Carl von Linné (Carl Linnæus) in 1758.

The one we know today and breed is the domesticated form of the Canarian Canary. This bird was introduced to Europe in the 15th century.

There are a variety of breeds (French, British, Dutch, Japanese…) bred according to their colors, postures, and songs. Among the Singing Canaries, the best-known species are Harz, Malinois, and Timbrados.

Today, the Canary is the most common cage bird species.
