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.
