Aruban birds

What are the birds like in Aruba? Are they large or small and very colorful? I think colorful birds would look good and really exotic.

There are small birds and large birds in Aruba. But what got my attention is the Aruban Burrowing owl. The people of Aruba just loved this bird. They have engrave it on their coins and put it on their stamps.

I think we would be able to see different types of birds in Aruba. There could be small, big and colorful one. Among the birds, I would like to see the endangered species. Do you think the island has these birds?

I am also interested in knowing if the birds are easy to see or if they stay hidden? Where I live there used to be lots of birds all over the places, but with cities growing now I only see pidgeons and sparrows...

I don't see many birds where I live either, just the city birds, and they're a little nasty like the crows and pigeons. The Aruban Burrowing owl sounds really interesting. Why do the Aruban people like this bird so much?

Is the burrowing owl the national bird of the island? This type of bird must be very significant in Aruba. I think this owl is small that's why people like it.
