Ba Ba Ba Badlands

taken with a brownie camera somewhere in new mexico during a road trip with one of my dearest friends.
i made this vid in 2001 in Cedar Key, Florida for ARCH school. all editing was done in camera, which changed my notion of patience.
i really should have been the national bird!
via Benjamin Franklin
For my own part I wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen the Representative of our Country. He is a Bird of bad moral character. He does not get his Living honestly.
…
I am on this account not displeased that the Figure is not known as a Bald Eagle, but looks more like a Turkey. For the Truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America… He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on.
