A man and his eagle

More from Sunday. We used to see this hawking group at most of the local shows, but they’ve been absent the last few years. Not sure why.

Used to be, for a pound you could have your picture taken with some big ol’ bird or other. I replaced my Facebook profile picture with one every year.

Dunno why he’s pointing to birdie’s head. Maybe because he’s a bald eagle that is too young to be bald yet. Anyway, he wasn’t putting on a show, he was wandering around carrying a bird.

As requested, here is the lace-making lady in color. I think that bright bobbly object at the bottom is her pincushion. She made the pattern by pinning threads to a board, but I don’t know what held them together.
