The rare Kirtland’s warbler breeds only in dense stands of young jack pines in north-central Michigan’s Crawford and Oscoda counties. It was designated Michigan’s Bicentennial Bird in 1976.
It has even been suggested that Kirtland’s warbler should replace the robin as Michigan’s state bird. Robins are far more common and remain in Michigan year round, while Kirtland’s warblers winter in the Bahamas. On the other hand, Kirtland’s warbler would be a unique and very educational symbol.
