What is the state bird of Connecticut?

The state bird of Connecticut is the American Robin. Known for its bright red breast and cheerful song, the American Robin is a familiar sight in Connecticut, particularly during the spring and summer months. The robin is one of the first migratory birds to return to the state in early spring, signaling the arrival of warmer weather. It is commonly found in suburban gardens, parks, and forests, where it feeds on insects, worms, and berries. The American Robin was designated as the state bird in 1943, representing Connecticut’s seasonal changes and connection to nature.
