WOUNDED KNEE MASSACRE

Read about it in "this day in history" in the column to the right. Amazing what "civilized" society has done to North America. I also recommend reading "Animal,Vegetable, Miracle: a year of food life" by Barbara Kingsolver.

And on a more birdy note: this Red-tailed Hawk was banded at Peabody WMA in West-central KY. 2nd year bird based on molt pattern and eye color. Photos courtesy Brian Smith.
