Dumbness of State Birds: Visualized

A reader named Hannah D. has come up with a cool way to visualize the dumbness of state birds as laid out in my State Birds: What They SHOULD Be post. Check out the map below, and see what your states' "dumb score" is. Thanks, Hannah!

  2. Aww, but the Slate version of your article said you were okay with Utah's state bird. Oh well. It's okay, seagulls, I still love you.

    In fairness though, I think our state tree is the Colorado something, and I don't think there's a story behind that one, so maybe we're just dumb.
