The eagle is held in high esteem among southeast tribes as a symbol of strength, power, wisdom, and honor. It is considered the strongest and bravest of all birds and is revered as one that flies closest to the Creator. Eagles are sacred to tribal people; and their feathers are bestowed upon a warrior for acts of bravery, for a naming ceremony, or for religious and ceremonial purposes. White-tipped feathers from the bald eagle symbolize peace and are dyed red during times of war.
