Morning With Canary

The forest festivities begin anew as morning moves into the world once more; and cute little canaries call out to their friends, reminding the other revelers that it's time to tuck their wings and warm their nests while they wait for the first rays of the sun to sizzle their sweet yellow chests. Canaries were formerly used by miners to warn of dangerous gases ("canary in a coal mine"). They are often depicted in the media with Tweety Bird being a well-known example. They are named after the Canary Islands, not the other way around. A legend of the islands, however, states that it was the conquistadors who named the islands after a fierce tribe inhabiting the largest island of the group, known as the 'Canarii'. The color canary yellow is in turn named after the yellow domestic canary, produced by a mutation which suppressed the melanins of the original dull-greenish wild canary color.
