Mexico’s Independence is celebrated in September. The flag has a caracara (like an eagle) holding a snake in it’s talon and perched atop a cactus on a rock that is above a lake. This symbol is of Tenochtitlan, the ancient Aztec city (now the capital of Mexico) and refers to the legend that the Aztec gods told the people to build a city where they spotted the caracara with the serpent.
