American Eagle
Here is an American Eagle as a belated tribute to Memorial Day which is observed on the last Monday of May each year in USA. It was formerly known as Decoration Day and commemorates all men and women, who have died in military service for the United States.
It is common for people to visit cemeteries and memorials on Memorial Day and it is traditionally seen as the start of the summer season.
Many volunteers place an American flag on graves in national cemeteries. Memorial Day is combined with Jefferson Davis' Birthday in Mississippi.
This eagle is part of a leadlight ornament we have had for many years.
Better in LARGE.
