Cool! As far as I know there are no birds named for Missouri or Kansas. So that got me wondering how many states have a bird with their name. I only came up with 11. Arizona (woodpecker), California (multiple), Kentucky (warbler), Louisiana ( waterthrush), Mississippi (kite), north and South Carolina (chickadee), Virginia and West Virginia ( rail), Tennessee (warbler) and Hawai’i (multiple). Google was not helpful in this either! Did I miss any?
The devil won’t find idle hands in your household. Great gift. Hope the water table holds.
Praying for rain...

Also that was a fun way to waste an hour, lol.
Wow! You did some work! And got me thinking...Connecticut and Viginia's Warbler come to mind...Hawaiian Petrel! Oh boy!
