State bird of Uttar Pradesh is

Each Indian state notifies one official state bird as a symbol of its regional biodiversity, choosing a species with a strong ecological or cultural link to that state — similar to how a state also has an official animal, tree, and flower.

Uttar Pradesh's notified state bird is the Sarus Crane, known locally as Saras. It is the world's tallest flying bird, found across the state's wetlands, and is culturally associated with lifelong pair-bonding, which is why the Uttar Pradesh government designated it as the state's official bird.

• House Sparrow is the notified state bird of Delhi, not Uttar Pradesh.

• Peacock is India's national bird, a country-wide designation, not a state-specific one for Uttar Pradesh.

• The parrot species notified as a state bird in India is Andhra Pradesh's Rose-ringed Parakeet, not any bird linked to Uttar Pradesh.
