Is your state bird a stupid state bird?
The author hits a point that I have long advocated - TEXAS should have a distinctive state bird, not one we share with a bunch of other states. I like his suggestions!

"States should have to put more thought into their state bird than I put into picking my socks in the morning. “Ugh, state bird? I dunno, what're the guys next to us doing? Cardinal? OK, let's do that too. Yeah put it on all the signs. Nah, no time to research the bill color, let's just go.” It’s the official state bird! Well, since all these jackanape states are too busy passing laws requiring everyone to own guns or whatever to consider what their state bird should be, I guess I’ll have to do it."
