[Bettin' Birdies, The Casino]
A perch-like metal rod extends completely across a room hung with yellow drapes. On the perch stand three contraptions of wood and metal that resemble huge (if skinny) canaries. In their metal feet they grip the rod, which serves as the axle around which they rotate, spinning and flapping their mechanical wings. You also see a sweeping staircase, a large sign, a gaming table, and a croupier.
Obvious exits: none.
