The photos, captured via a live stream on the Pennsylvania Game Commission website, show the eagle's beak barely protruding from a mound of snow; the rest of its body is completely buried. A tweet from the Game Commission helpfully explains the bird stays warm by fluffing its feathers for insulation and eating food.
