A little note about Bullfinches
:
BULLFINCH birds have a remarkable facility of learning songs they hear. When a Bullfinch hits a wrong note it goes back to the beginning of the song and starts over.
This ability of the Bullfinch was discovered in the 1850s so they became quite popular. Queen Victoria owned a Bullfinch. A Bullfinch that could sing a t least three folk songs was in high demand and fetched high prices.
The Bullfinch sings copied songs beautifully though their own song sounds like a "squeaky wheelbarrow".  Kind of funny, but they are such darling birds.
If you are a bird fancier you will love owning this Bell with the 2 darling Bullfinches depicted on it's side.
You won't hear their songs but the bell has a nice tinkling sound to summon the lovely person who will bring your cuppa tea!
Good luck bidding!
