What is Colorado's state bird?

• A. Lark Bunting
• B. Colorado Blue Columbine
• C. Where the Columbine Grows.
• D. Nil Sine Numine

Answer: (A)

Colorado's state symbols include a bird, a flower, a song, and a motto. The Lark Bunting is the official state bird, chosen to embody Colorado’s plains and bird life. The other items listed aren’t birds: the Colorado Blue Columbine is the state flower; Where the Columbine Grows is the state song; Nil Sine Numine is the state motto. The Lark Bunting is a small migratory songbird. The breeding male is striking with a black body and white wing patches, while the female is more muted. They are common on Colorado’s grasslands, and their cheerful song helps people remember the state’s prairie heritage.
