     Yukon Territory: Common Raven
     Ontario: Common Loon
     Saskatchewan: Sharp-tailed Grouse
     Northwest Territories: Gyrfalcon
     Nunavut: Rock Ptarmigan


As of yet, there is no official national bird of Canada, but a recent, unauthorized survey and subsequent selection process declared the Gray Jay as the bird that should be Canada's national bird.   The Gray Jay was not the top pick of participants in the survey portion of the process.   The Canadian government has not commented on the unauthorized selection.   Stay tuned.

Please comment if you wish.
