What birds are precious in captivity?

1, the preciousness of bird species

Precious species in caged birds often refer to the rarity and value of birds. These birds include but are not limited to canaries, plum finches, larks, cockatoos, red-billed lovebirds and so on.

Canary is a precious peacock traditionally raised in Europe. Wild canaries and mountain canaries have been listed as national second-class protected animals. Canaries in captivity are more expensive.

The canary, which is extremely rare in China, is a beautiful small soft-billed bird. Because of its small size and beautiful appearance, it is regarded as another kind of "panda" after sika deer, so it is cherished.

2. Habits of caged birds

Birds are very sensitive creatures, and their adaptability to the environment is also strongly reflected. For the urban environment where the air is often turbid and even contains poisonous gas, wild birds will adopt two ways: "migration" and "escape". Caged birds are protected by human beings from the above threats.

The habits and characteristics of the same bird in the cage environment and the wild environment are also different. For example, the finches like to perch on dead branches in the natural environment, but because of the lack of similar habitats in the cage environment, they choose to fly in the air at the top of the cage, which is more popular with breeders.

Not only in China, but also all over the world, keeping birds has become a popular hobby. Many bird breeders believe that bird watching can help people reduce psychological pressure, relax their body and mind and cultivate their sentiments.

When these birds are kept in cages, their dynamics and habits also provide more cultural value for the viewers.
