Bald Eagle, Lower Whitefish Lake, Minnesota, Crow Wing County, United States of America
True Freedom

Species: Bald Eagle | Location: Lower Whitefish Lake, Minnesota, Crow Wing County, United States of America

By Alli Faricy

Perched high above the lake, drying her feathers after a morning hunting session, this mother Bald Eagle looks out over the open air. When animals have the space they need to raise their families and provide food for their young, they can truly breathe in their own freedom.

About The Photographer

Cropped alli
Finding, observing and photographing creatures in their natural habitats is when I am in my happy place. Learning a little bit about how they live, how they survive is my goal every time I go out there. The messiness that is taking pictures of energetic, moving beings in their natural habitat challenges and moves me. No day is alike, no scenario the same. Amateur who just loves animals and loves taking pictures of them.
