It is Freedom Friday and today let’s go with this absolutely fantastic creature against those deep, blue Colorado skies. Taken a few weeks ago in Estes Park.

Bald eagles have been a spiritual symbol of Native Americans for hundreds of years. There were variations between tribes as to the eagles’ symbolism but for most it generally represented bravery, wisdom, strength and courage. It was believed that the eagles carried prayers to the Great Spirit.

I don’t know that I could disagree with their beliefs about these majestic raptors.
