279 Boutique Bed+Breakfast has a new alarm clock!

This is Srinivas. 279's newest addition. His singing is the most beautiful  wake-up music you will ever hear!

  Here's a tidbit of background info:

The Roller Canary like all canaries is descended from a small green finch native to the Canary Islands in the Atlantic. Conquering Spanish soldiers and sailors brought them back to Spain to honor their lady loves as early as 1496. These 'little sugar birds' as they were known because of the beauty of their song soon became so fashionable that it was a matter of etiquette among the aristocracy to have a sailor present one in a golden cage to his lady.  


I'll take a canary in a golden cage over chocolates any day!!
