"On the 26th of July we went to a pet shop to look for the perfect bird," Barry's owner told Bored Panda. "We came back on the 27th and thought he was definitely the one!"
"We believe he is 1 and a half years old but we have no proof (Glosters can live 7 - 12 years)," the owner told us. "There are two types of gloster canaries, one being consorts they are the ones without the fringe and the others are coronas with the fringe and it's pretty obvious which category barry falls under!"
"Barry absolutely adores going out in his bird carrier," Barry's owner told Bored Panda. "We will walk around parks and fields and he will tweet and hop with excitement."
"He also loves sitting on the window still and singing," Barry's owner said.
Talking about the newly-gained popularity of Barry, his owner told Bored Panda: "I never expected to exceed 1k followers but we love and appreciate every single one of Barry's followers!"
