Walt Whitman's canary is held as an exhibit in Bolton Museum. The exhibit is stuffed and mounted on a perch in a life like pose and housed in beneath a bell jar. .

Folsom reports Justin Kaplan (1980) in his Walt Whitman: A Life discussion of the visit to Whitman of one of the "more eccentric sects of Whitman's "apostolic church""; the Bolton Whitmanites from Eagle Street College. Two members of the college Dr. J. Johnston and J. W. Wallace visited in 1890/1891 publishing the diaries of their visits in Visits to Walt Whitman in 1890-1891 (London: George Allen & Unwin, 1917). The tale is told therein of the bird came to Bolton:

This bird, which was the subject of Whitman's lines, My Canary Bird, died shortly after my visit, and Mrs. Davis [Whitman's housekeeper] had it stuffed. It was brought to Bolton by Dr. Bucke, together with an autographed copy of the lines, in 1891, and presented to Mr. Wallace (pp. 60-61).

Walt Whitman's canary is noted from his poem 'My Canary Bird' published in the New York Herald on 2 March 1888.

Did we count great,

O soul, to penetrate the themes of mighty books,

Absorbing deep and full from thoughts, plays, speculations?

But now from thee to me, caged bird, to feel thy joyous warble,

Filling the air, the lonesome room, the long forenoon,

Is it not just as great, O soul?

On its death Whitman had the bird stuffed and then bird noted The bird was by the museum from Wllace who recieved it as a gift from Dr Bucke when he visited Bolton in 1891.
