Name the Bird - Revealed

The time has come to reveal the answer to the much anticipated, first ever, 'Name the' contest (excluding the 'Name the Poop' contest, which was a beta release and complete shit). Before I do take a look at this most recent picture. Perhaps you can tell now, hmmm?! Hint, think color.



It's holds the record for popularity as the official state bird for 7 US states: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia.

A professional baseball team is named after this bird. There are only 3 teams in MLB named after a bird: (2) in the American League and (1) in the National League. The team this bird is named after is in the National league.

The Roman Catholic Archidocese of Boston, Seán Patrick O'Malley, is one.

Also, the number of elements in a mathematical set, which denotes a quantity but not the order.

Here is the female watching over the nest and posing for the picture.

Here is the male standing guard, also posing for the picture.

Surely you now must know this stunning bird!

Update: We're guessing one is a male and one is a female based on their coloring. The little red dude, who appeared to be bolder and more animated, took flight yesterday morning - off he went. Boy did that cause a ruckus. The parents went into protect mode immediately. They were very vocal and stayed right with him watching over him. We're not sure where he is today and hope he's fine. The mother was back on the nest last night keeping the remaining chick warm, as the temperature dropped quite a bit last night and is still that way now.
