Good Morning #Canada
Despite the best efforts of Canadian Geographic magazine, Canada does not have a national bird. A decade ago they held a survey intended to have Canadians choose their favourite bird and the winner - the Gray Jay - would be rubber stamped by Parliament. Didn't happen. Politicians refused to flock to the idea and the whole project laid an egg. I like Tod's recommendations and vote we put him in charge.#CanadaIsAwesome #NationalBird #Ornithology

Backlit Harpy Eagle chicks are the devil! 🤣 This beautiful but wrongly lit baby eagle was a real challenge... I'm not sure how to process backlit photos, suggestions are always welcome. Many days in Panama are overcast, but not this day!

Great news for America's national bird! The bald eagle, once on the brink of extinction, has made a remarkable comeback and was officially designated as the national bird of the United States in December 2024. Thanks to conservation efforts and the banning of harmful pesticides, these majestic birds are now thriving across the country.

The bald eagle is now officially recognized as the national bird of the United States! 🦅 Signed into law by President Joe Biden, this iconic symbol joins the ranks of other American emblems like the oak tree 🌳, the rose 🌹, and the bison 🦬. Once an endangered species, the bald eagle's journey represents resilience and strength—a true testament to America's spirit.

" ”The story about Benjamin Franklin wanting the National Bird to be a turkey is just a myth,”[writes] the Franklin Institute"
" ”Although Benjamin Franklin defended the honor of the turkey against the bald eagle, he did not propose its becoming one of America's most important symbols” "

🔸Perhaps it should've been Gonzo:
"Kermit...says ”And a thing, whatever Gonzo is. He's a little like a turkey...but not much” "😎

The August 2024 issue of Living Bird, published by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, has an article about USA's national bird.
Or rather, about how the US does not have an official national bird!
Though the Bald Eagle adorns the official seal of the USA (est 1782), legislation to designate the large raptor as the national bird was never introduced.
A bill to do so passed the Senate this year and is currently before the House.

Luxon must be so disappointed that the Kiwi is our national bird. It's a brown, quiet, unassuming creature which goes around in the dark with its head down.
Almost, I dunno, "negative, wet and whiny, inward-looking”?I'm sure he'd much rather we were represented by a bird with "mojo.. with a lot more ambition and aspiration".
A loudmouth look-at-me bird like the mynah, perhaps. -
