Today is the birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. She has lots of arms of dominion, so I'll share one of her less-known arms, her arms as Queen of the Bahamas

Crest A conch of the Giant Wingsnail and five palm leaves proper.
Escutcheon Argent, Christopher Columbus’ Santa Maria in full sail proper, on a base barry wavy of four Azure and Argent; and a chief Azure, a rising sun radiant Or.
Supporters On the dexter a Blue Marlin and on the sinister a red flamingo proper.
Compartment Waves of the sea on the dexter and a grassy ground on the sinister proper.
Motto Forward, Upward, Onward Together
