Description Indiana State Fair 2009

"Indiana Birds of Prey" Show

This poor guy has only one wing that functions and he fell and hung like a bat several times, until he was assisted back into position on the glove. They fear some head trauma has occurred. But he's a lovely bird and we all enjoyed him.

Poor fella.

Amazing photo though. Next year I'd really like to see the state fair, I've never been to it.

Ah, you don't know what you're missing! Not just the bird shows, but the HORSE competition!!!!! Six and eight hitch Percheron and Clydesdales!!!! Man, that's exciting! Oh, and wait til you see the yearling Percheron! What a cutie!!! I spent two days just in the barns and in the ring watching horses!!!!

Indeed he is and, more importantly, he's alive and being well cared for! So, he may fall off of the glove every now and then....but he's okay! Still a very gorgeous guy! I'm happy he is where he is...thrilling people like me!
