Buffalo Dancers


There was quite a bit of entertainment on both days of the Indian Market. I was in the middle of shooting another photo when I heard drums in the distance. I missed the first dance but these kind men were more than happy to pose for the group that had gathered to watch them perform.

Looks like it must be a Buffalo Dance?

Good Grief! I am up much too early; it just occurred to me that you clearly identified the dancers in your label; guess I shouldn't blog until I have some coffee!!

That is very cool, Randy. Love your phrase, "drums in the distance." :) I had visions of you out on the prairie alone with darkness descending ... and drums in the distance!

These guys look kinda scary!
