And Flag Day and President Trump's 79th birthday!

The park's website said the event is partially inspired by Dinosaur, artist Iván Argote's 17-foot-tall aluminum pigeon sculpture that resides at the park.

Will Jonah be the judge?

Jonah is a masculine given name derived from the Hebrew: יוֹנָה, Yonā, meaning dove or pigeon. It is the name of the Abrahamic prophet Jonah.
