Will County’s Preserve the Moment Photo Contest: ‘V’ for Victory

An eagle with outstretched wings in the shape of a “V” signaled a victory for photo contest participant Bertrand Leclercq of Naperville, who won November’s portion of the Forest Preserve District of Will County’s Preserve the Moment Photo Contest, which began in May. One more monthly winner will be chosen for December before the Forest Preserve District's 2022 contest concludes on Dec. 31. Leclercq's stunning photo of an eagle lifting off from a branch at McKinley Woods preserve in Channahon was one of five photos selected by judges from all entries. The five photos were voted on by members of the public on the District’s Facebook page. Leclercq said he enjoys going into Will County forest preserve to take photos. Monthly winners each receive a $75 Visa gift card and all entrants receive a participation gift. Overall contest winners will be chosen in January from among the eight monthly winners, with $500, $250 and $150 Visa gift cards to be awarded for first, second and third place, respectively. Three random drawings also will be held for all contest participants and those three winners will each receive a $75 Visa gift card. All prizes are funded by The Nature Foundation of Will County.
