First part contains the following: Canary is board in his cage. He sees a nice looking `girl' walking outside his widow and tries to escape. He succeeds. We see the little canary flying freely through air, playing with a scary looking kite and flying again until he gets dizzy and falls down a chimney. Comes out grey to join a choir of sparrows. They kick him out for spoiling their disability to sing and he ends up in a garden where he meets a girl again. He goes after her just to be kicked by her, much bigger, partner.
