Independence Day honors the birthday of the United States of America and the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. I was able to capture this photo at our local Zoo (Hogle Zoo) recently and thought it was appropriate to share today.
“The bald eagle was chosen June 20, 1782 as the emblem of the United States of America, because of its long life, great strength and majestic looks, and also because it was then believed to exist only on this continent.”
I will be celebrating Independence Day in Wyoming with my family. It’s a tradition we started when our kids were young and is something they look forward to each year.
