Canary

I've got a little thing for birds. As a child, we always had a bird in our house. My grandfather owned a lot of doves so I called him grandpa dove. So when I heard there was an exhibition about canaries in a museum nearby I thought I: Why not take a look? So I did, and it actually turned out te be quite nice! At first I didn't really like the idea of taking a look at dead canaries but all these birds had a great life and died of natural cause. I actually thought the sight of all these colourfull birds together looked quite beautiful and there were some beautiful birdcages to take a look at as well! I wish I could have a bird or another pet but I'm allergic to most of them so now I just own a fish. :) Do you have any pets?

  1. It may be a bit morbid, but I love looking at all of those dead birds in museums. The colours are amazing! I'm glad that you took a picture of them too.
