Yesterday’s travel took us to Zuni Pueblo.  They are long time friends and associates who live in one of the most beautiful parts of New Mexico.

Zuni is host to one of the few Eagle Sanctuaries in the US.  With approval from the sanctuary’s administrator, visitors can walk right in among the Eagles.  The Golden Eagle and Bald Eagles are right there with you, spikes as talons and a beak that can penetrate your hand.  Stafford let me pet one.

Currently they have 28 eagles in the sanctuary.  Most have broken wings but one had all her tail feathers chewed off by a predator.
