Parrot with Prayer Feathers
Gerald Dawavendewa (Hopi & Cherokee)
Holding a prayer bundle of corn and feathers, parrot gathers these good blessings for the world. The indigenous people of the southwest have traded parrots and their feathers with native groups in what is now Mexico for over two millennia. The Parrot represents the direction South and the color red which is found in the rainbows that come with the rain clouds.
