Miami joins flock seeking to elevate American Flamingo to state bird
Florida’s famously pink flamingo is gaining support as a contender for the state’s official bird, with the City of Miami joining a local push after Miami-Dade County designated it as its official bird in July. City The City of Miami has joined efforts to elevate the American Flamingo to Florida's official bird, replacing the common mockingbird who has held the title for 99 years. This comes after Miami-Dade County designated the flamingo as its official bird in July. The effort adds to the bird's growing recognition as a symbol of South Florida. The proposal was initially supported in the Florida House but stalled in the Senate, leaving the bird’s statewide designation uncertain. The city’ resolution, sponsored by Commissioner Ralph Rosado, calls for renewed consideration and enactment of legislation designating the flamingon as the state bird.
