The environment atop Bald Mountain is pretty extreme, especially during winter. Wind driven snow and extreme temperatures yet these birds call it home year round. 

Canon 7Dii, Canon 400 2.8 , ISO 400, 1/400 @ f9 , PP in LR4

Thanks for looking. Comments are always apreciated

Pleasont composition and overall setting. This would be my favorite of the two you showed us, because the habitat that is visible in this one. Cheers, Hans
