The shield has the piping shrike within a golden disc (representing the rising sun) on a blue background. The piping shrike is the unofficial bird emblem of South Australia and also appears on the state badge. The crest is the Sturt's desert pea, the floral emblem of South Australia, on top of a wreath of the state colours. The coat of arms has no supporters, but a 1984 proposal showed koala and wombat supporters.^{[citation needed]} The compartment, or base, is a grassland with symbols of agriculture and industry, and a motto with the name "South Australia".
