Apparently the Scots are seriously considering having a national bird and at the moment the Golden Eagle is the favourite.
NEW Zealand has the kiwi, Antigua has the frigate bird and Belize has the keel-billed toucan - but Scotland has nothing.
A total of 90 countries around the world, and numerous states and provinces, have a national bird. Scotland is not one of them but that omission could soon be reversed thanks to a recent decision by MSPs.
Assuming this goes ahead will the idea catch on south of the border? If it does what bird should the English choose?
