Doctor bird

What it means: Jamaican national identity through the officially recognized national bird.

The long-tailed hummingbird is one of Jamaica’s official national symbols. The Office of the Prime Minister also describes permission procedures for trademark uses.

Often chosen for: Family, home & belonging · Luck, joy & celebration · Strength & courage · Curiosity, creativity & wonder · Nature & the living world

Respectful use: Natural bird illustration only, without an official emblem. Check the intended national-symbol or trademark use with the relevant authority before product development; clear image and artist rights separately.
