Description of the flag

The original Bernalillo county flag is white with the county seal in the centre.

This scan of a drawing I saw (likely in FlagsAm, a publication of the Canadian Vexillological Assn) will give an idea of the flag and the colors of the seal.

Detail of seal

image provided by Amanda Colburn, 26 June 2012

The seal shows a stylized landscape with light blue sky over dark blue mountains and eight sheep in foreground, white on dark green background, in two rows (5+3). A dark green rim with "Bernalillo County" above and "State of New Mexico" below, set in copper capitals. All elements edged in copper. Sun shaped in Zia-style, like in the state flag.
