The Sooner State's bird flies with a tail twice its body
Oklahoma adopted the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher in 1951. A bird with a tail twice as long as its body that hunts insects on the wing across the southern Plains. OK summers belong to it.
Where it fits
Oklahoma's state bird, alone. The Scissor-tailed Flycatcher breeds across Texas and Oklahoma but only OK claims it as state bird.
Why a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher
- The tail is twice the body length. Forked, dramatic, unmistakable in flight. Built for aerobatics.
- It catches insects mid-air. Hawks from a fence post, snaps the bug out of the wind, returns. Patient hunter.
- It gathers in flocks before fall migration. Hundreds wheel together over Plains pastures in September. Community move.
What "rebel" adds in Oklahoma
Oklahoma is Sooner State frontier self-reliance, prairie independence, and a state shaped by hard weather and harder history. The Rebel Scissortail is for the version of you that knows the wheat futures, that helps your neighbor batten down before the storm, that fixes things instead of replacing them. Sooner State character: place-rooted, weather-tested, neighbor-first by reflex.
