Hate to correct the master, but the Canary Islands are not in the Pacific, but in the Atlantic.  Also....

"The bird is named after the Canary Islands, not the other way around. The islands' name is derived from the Latin name canariae insulae ("islands of dogs") used by Arnobius, referring to the large dogs kept by the inhabitants of the islands"

We learn something new every day.
