Around Montgomery – Find the Eagle

Posted on January 31, 2012 by in AroundMtgy

This majestic American bald eagle is a fitting Valentine’s month symbol, since eagles, once paired, remain together until one dies. Our eagle is slightly tattered, with frayed wing tips exposing a bit of rebar, and cracks etched across its wings. Its curved neck ends in the characteristic hooked beak (made of keratin) and piercing gaze (they have very good eyesight).Find our concrete-feathered friend, snap your photo with it in the background (doubtful you can get very close), and send it by February 15 to be entered in a drawing for a gift certificate to Mr. Gus Ristorante. The winner will have their photo printed in the next issue of Prime Montgomery. E-mail photo and contact information to jakebroberts1@gmail.com.

The December/January Mystery location is the obelisk at the Alabama War Memorial. Mack Nixon of Montgomery recognized it and sent this photo. Thanks, Mack! We’ll send along your Mr. Gus Ristorante gift certificate.
