Translated from municipal
web site: "The flag of Pajarito, with the green colour,
representing the hope of our people, and the sapodilla colour,
representing the prefered fruit in our municipality,
sapodilla."
"The coat of arms of Pajarito is made of mountains,
belonging to the Province of La Libertad and located in the
south-east of Boyacá. The tree is the "ceibo" planted
in the main park and more than 100 years old. The bull represents
cattle-breeding in the region. River Cusina, watering our
fields."
The sapodilla tree is Manilkara achras (L.) P. Royen,
Family Sapotaceae as photographed
in Pajarito. The ceibo tree must be Erythrina crita-galli
L., family Fabaceae (known as "coral tree" in Los
Angeles, USA) as photographed
in the main park
