Lots of hawks, eagles, blue and white herons, snowy egrets, and sandhill cranes.

We occasionally have a mockingbird perch atop our chimney in the morning and sing his brains out; the complexity of its song is amazing.

The main reason why a Republican would want to change the state bird is just to be a dick.
