Connecticut was one of the 13 colonies during the American Revolution. After America won, and the Constitution was written, the colonies were allowed to become states under the condition that they ratified the Constitution. The benefits of being a state were having representatives in the Senate and the House of Representatives, so that when decisions were being made for the whole nation, people from their state would have some say.

Which states are the robin the state bird?
Because the Michigan Audobon Society lobbied for it in 1931. The bird is very common in Michigan, and well known. It was passed as a House Resolution, not an actual law. Three years later, it was discovered that the Kirtland's Warbler is unique to Michigan. It summers in Northern Michigan, and winters in the Bahamas. Sounds like a smart bird to me. There is a push from the Michigan Audobon Society now to make the Kirtland Warbler the official state bird of Michigan.
