🐦Atlantic Canary

Serinus canaria (Linnaeus, 1758)

Kanariefuglen (latin: Serinus canaria) er en spurvefugl i familien finker. Fuglen findes i to varianter, dels vild kanariefugl og dels en tæmmet burfugl, der almindeligt anvendes som kæledyr. De vilde fugle er cirka 13 cm og gulgrønne med mørke striber. De lever på Madeira, Azorerne og de Kanariske Øer i Atlanterhavet. Burfuglene har derimod meget varierende størrelse og udseende, og er desuden kendt for deres smukke sang. De blev første gang tæmmet af spanske munke i 1400-tallet. Kanariefuglen er nært beslægtet med gulirisk.
