Flag of Anguilla
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The national flag of Anguilla consists of a Blue Ensign with the British flag in the upper left, and the coat of arms of Anguilla in the lower right corner. The coat of arms consists of three dolphins, which were featured on the earlier Anguillan flag, and which stand for friendship, wisdom and strength.
The flag is Anguilla's third flag other than as part of Saint Christopher-Nevis-Anguilla. The island's first flag was a red and blue flag featuring the name of the island in yellow and two mermaids. This flag was widely disliked, and was replaced during Anguilla's brief period of independence by the Dolphin Flag, which is still widely seen around the island. This flag was a banner of the arms found on the current flag, and was white with a broad blue band across the base of the flag, above which were three stylised golden dolphins.
