The Crow

We passed thru part of Crow country (reservation) upon entering Montana. The Crow called themselves the Apsaalooke, which was translated by French interpreters as "People of the Crows". The Crow were originally given the name "Children of the large beaked bird", by a neighboring tribe, the Hidatsa.

Upon seeing this sign, it reminded me of a crow I once knew. Perhaps his spirit has gone on to soar free in this land.
