Postcard Challenge is a game where you send me a postcard with a challenge of any sort (For example: "The Road Not Taken" or "Bison" or "Hope") I respond to the challenge pictorially or poetically or howsoever with a postcard and send you a challenge of my own. I've been playing this with BLOB_CASTLE and others for several months now.

In one postcard challenge game, I was asked what my province's official symbols were. In responding to this challenge, I discovered that my province only has an official flower, bird, tartan (tartan?), and mineral. We are so symbol deprived! Other provinces have all those and more, including:

  - official provincial animal (we don't even have an animal) 
  - ofishal fish (four provinces)
  - provincial soil
  - official provincial grass (three provinces)
  - official insect or maybe provincial fishing tackle (New Brunswick Salmon Fly), 
  - provincial dog
  - provincial berry
  - provincial gemstone
  - official fossil
  - provincial song

SHEESH. So it got me wondering. What does your STATE, TERRITORY, PROVINCE, DUCHY (as in Grand Duchy of Luxembourg) have in the way of symbols?

Here's our official tartan:
