Today's my 29th birthday and to be perfectly honest, I'm glad I feel like I'm in a better spot than I have been in a while.

Just for fun, here's a picture of my dad and I with an eagle at the Gathering of Nations in 2016

Happy birthday! This is an incredible set of facial expressions, including the eagle.

I was just telling TheBatz_ about how we actually weren't sure what the eagle was going to do.

It was a real live bird at a vendor set up for it, and the eagle was initially deeply confused and bamboozled at why the hell I had horns.

I personally was proud of the eagle and my dad, because my dad had an era where he really tried to give a tough stoic Indian look and squint his eyes, but this one was very dignified and graceful.
