Answer:
I did a whole report on this in the third grade and now I can actually put my knowledge to good use
Step-by-step explanation:
The Robin red breast (AKA the Robin) is the Michigan state bird but the original state bird of Michigan was the cardinal until they almost went extinct due to us chopping down there trees (Some of the cardinals' favorite trees include mulberry, serviceberry, flowering dogwood, crabapple, and spruce. Shrubs at the top of their feeding list include staghorn sumac, red-osier dogwood, gray dogwood, and viburnum species) trees native to Michigan would be Spruce, Crabapple, and mulberry. Because of us chopping down certain trees Robins became more indiginous to the area and so Robins are now the state bird. (this is the summed up version of my report and I hope this helps lol)
