A bald eagle flies over the tree tops in West Newbury
A bald eagle flies over the tree tops in West Newbury, Massachusetts March 17, 2010. Bald eagles are making a comeback in the United States to the point where they were taken off the Interior Departments Endangered Species List in 2007, though they are still protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Brian Snyder, a majestic bald eagle soars gracefully above the lush tree tops in West Newbury, Massachusetts. The image showcases the awe-inspiring beauty and strength of these incredible birds. This particular photograph holds deeper significance as it symbolizes the remarkable resurgence of bald eagles across the United States. Once on the brink of extinction due to habitat loss and pesticide use, their population has made an inspiring comeback. In fact, they were removed from the Interior Department's Endangered Species List in 2007. However, despite this positive development, bald eagles remain protected under important legislations such as the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. These laws ensure that these magnificent creatures continue to thrive undisturbed in their natural habitats. Snyder's skillful composition captures not only the sheer grace of this soaring bird but also serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve wildlife for future generations. This powerful image is a testament to nature's resilience and our collective efforts towards conservation. As we gaze upon this breathtaking scene, let us appreciate both the beauty of this individual moment frozen in time and reflect on how far we have come in safeguarding these iconic national symbols – reminding us that with dedication and care, even endangered species can reclaim their place among us.
