Simple Toys This shot quite nicely shows how a simple hanging perch such as this can be made more entertaining to a canary - simply tie short bits of kitchen twine onto it - the birds will spend hours tugging at it and 'preening' it, especially as the season moves on towards the spring breeding season. This is Alpha-Bits, so-named because he was the last son of my hen Little Bits. He is a young ticked Red Lipochrome canary. He is venting his frustration by tugging at the twine on the millet-holder perch.
