Songbird is the Canary network for Flare, it will have two distinct phases. Prior to the launch of Flare, Songbird will be instrumental in the continued testing of the Flare Time Series Oracle, the StateConnector and F-Asset systems and the network architecture. Post Flare launch, Songbird is intended to be a long term network for testing governance led changes to Flare, such as the incorporation of new F-Assets, changes to the FTSO, F-Asset systems or any other network change.

Songbird will be airdropping free SGB to XRP holders based on the same snapshot as of Flare which was taken at the first validated XRP ledger index number with a timestamp greater than or equal to 00:00 GMT on 12th December 2020. Eligible users will get free SGB at a ratio of 0.1511 SGB : 1 XRP.
