Bluebird

 
    On March 30, 1927, the native Bluebird became the official state bird of Missouri. The bluebird, considered a symbol of happiness, is usually 6 1/2 to 7 inches long. While its upper parts are covered with light blue plumage, its breast is cinnamon red, turning rust-colored in the fall. The Bluebird is common in Missouri from early spring until late November.
