有著優雅迷人的啼叫聲,加上一身漂亮的金黃色羽毛,給人印象嬌貴的金絲雀向來受到不少養鳥人的喜愛,不過金絲雀當中有種在野外看不到、被人工培育出來,作為觀賞用的「Crested Canaries 鳳頭金絲雀」,有如戴上「馬桶蓋」或「西瓜皮」般的髮片,有著與名稱不太相符的呆萌喜感,頭上彷彿硬放了一頂假髮,乍看與英國首相鮑里斯強森或演出周星馳電影《食神》而爆紅的八兩金,又或是韓劇《梨泰院CLASS》當中男主角朴敘俊的栗子頭有些相像。

從19世紀就開始被繁殖的鳳頭金絲雀,性格相當溫馴親人,對其他鳥類都很友善的牠們是天生的社交高手,與其他的鳥同伴一起生活都能和平相處、從不打架,只要飼主能保持環境的整潔、提供通風涼爽的足夠空間,在健康的狀況下大多能活到10-12歲。

過去IG上也曾有隻被陽光照在身上,而呈現出「彩虹光」被眾多網友注意到的鳳頭金絲雀Barry,同樣頂著一頭碗公般、幾乎快要看不到眼睛的瀏海,讓人看過一眼就很難忘。

低著頭的Barry有著像是人們染過頭髮再長出來黑黃交接的「布丁頭」。

抖動蓬鬆的一頭亂髮,會叫人忍不住想拿起梳子幫牠整理一下髮型。

想看看Barry發亮的眼睛,還必須要從低處抬起頭來才看得到。

只是很遺憾的,去年九月底Barry在睡夢中安然過世了,在短短的生命中除了陪伴主人、共度過幸福快樂的生活外,牠可愛又特別的外貌也治癒過不少網友的心。
