Facts about Flags

This morning, we came across two countries with interesting flags. Apparently, the parrot on the flag of Dominica (left) is sometimes shown in blue, and sometimes in purple. And when it's purple, it's the only flag in the whole world to have purple on it! And the Papua New Guinea flag (right) was designed by a 15-year-old school girl, but that was in 1971, so she's a grown-up now. It shows a raggiana bird of paradise, and the Southern Cross. That's a star formation, but we can't see it, because we're north of the equator!
