The nine eagle feathers tower 20 feet into the Irish sky. Aligned in a circle, the look is imperfect, bends and creases in one feather distinguishing it from its next metallic counterpart. The feathers stand strong, made from steel and bound together with more than 20,000 welds.
Built to honor a donation by the Choctaw Nation to the people of Ireland during the Great Potato Famine, the sculpture is made by Alex Pentek and called 'Kindred Spirits.' The piece was unveiled in May in a park in Middleton, Ireland.
