Pictured is a Parrot mosaic on display in the Kimbell Museum of Art in Fort Worth, Texas. It was created circa 400 AD. Mosaics with bird and animal motifs set in geometric borders were commonly used as pavement decoration in Early Christian churches. They often carried symbolic meanings. This image of a parrot may symbolize the virginal motherhood of Mary.
