You had me going for a second. I would like to note, my dear friends, Tom and Sara Shane of Garden City, KS (Tom is the author of the Lark Bunting account for BNA) pointed out to me there is very little representation of our State Bird, the Lark Bunting, on any Colorado memoriablia as found in tourist gift shops, truck stops, etc.. So for the past few years, when traveling through-out the State, I always check for cups, shirts, plates, maps with our beautiful Lark Bunting to show them how proud we are of our bunting. So far I've found a refrigerator magnet.
