Birds of the Hmong

In my findings on the Hmong culture, i could not really find much related to birds and the Hmong culture. The only thing that i came across (but could not find more info on) was Hmong embroidery and birds. The Hmong people love to embroider all different types of pillows and other objects around the home. In my findings, i have found some of these items have birds and other scenes from nature on them.

Here is a picture of one of the embroidered Hmong pillows with the image of a bird on it. I could not find what exact bird is pictured above but this obviously shows the importance of birds and nature in the Hmong culture.
