Illinois & North Dakota Holiday Flag

The Illinois Holiday Flag has Woodstock standing in for the National Bird.  Woodstock is also wearing a Santa hat and it is night time.  There is a moon rise over Lake Michigan and several constellations can be seen: the Big Dipper and Little Dipper.   The motto has changed to read 'Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.'  Lastly the olive branch turned into mistletoe.   The grass is no loner visible due to snowfall and the lake side has no waves since it is frozen over.

 Since Woodstock represents Illinois for the Holiday, another American avian icon from fantasia was chosen to represent North Dakota: Woody Woodpecker.  For the Christmas North Dakota flag Woody takes up position as the national bird.  He is red, white, and blue after all.

However Woody is carrying candy canes in the his left talon and holly in the right, which is sometimes used as an alternative to official mistletoe.  The motto has changed in his beak as well it now reads 'Merry Chirstmas.'  Woody is also wearing a Santa cap.   The aurora glow above the stars is red and green.  Along the bottom several Christmas balls are hanging from the North Dakota banner.

To really appreciate the design of the Illinois Holiday flag you need to look at the original.  Although the official flag does not have a golden circle, the official seal does.  Like all good Northpolarized flags night becomes day and the stars and moon are visible.

Below is the official North Dakota flag with the its Northpolarized version.  It definitely has more noise.  It is like the old debate of white lights versus coloured lights.  White lights never go wrong have an element of class.  But coloured lights offer a more playful and ranged essence.  Both are nice and its good the enjoy them all.
