Bald eagle has recently been officially declared as the national bird of which one among the following countries ?

Although the Bald Eagle has been a symbol of the United States since 1782 (appearing on the Great Seal), it was officially designated as the national bird of the USA only in December 2024, when President Joe Biden signed a bill passed by Congress formally giving it this status. Before this law, the bald eagle was widely recognised as a national symbol but had no official legal status as the national bird.
