Watching, waiting

Chosen Pick of the Month! Judges' comments: "It is a great shot of one of the area's treasures, and the snow falling around him is a nice part of the scene." "It's a nice crisp shot!" The photographer writes: "This time of the year, the bald eagles are close to the lake feeding. Got lucky driving into town - I had my camera! Sandpoint is such a magnificent place to photograph wildlife and to live. Taken on Gold Hill above Bottle Bay. Happy new year!" Taken Dec. 30.
