EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Great White Pelican, Pelecanus onocrotalus, gracefully spreads its wings against the backdrop of the Danube Delta in Romania. Taken by renowned wildlife photographer Andrei Prodan, this image showcases the majesty and power of one of the world's largest flying birds. The pelican's distinctive pouch, which it uses to scoop up fish, is clearly visible in this shot, adding to the intrigue and wonder of this avian marvel. The Danube Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a biodiversity hotspot and an essential breeding and feeding ground for numerous bird species, including the Great White Pelican. The delta's complex network of waterways, islands, and marshes provides the perfect habitat for these magnificent birds to thrive. As the sun casts a warm glow over the delta, the pelican stands motionless in the shallow waters, patiently waiting for its next meal. Its keen eyes scan the water's surface, ready to strike at a moment's notice. This moment of stillness and focus is a testament to the pelican's skill as a hunter and its ability to blend in with its surroundings. Birdwatchers and wildlife photographers from around the world flock to the Danube Delta to witness the spectacle of the Great White Pelican and other fascinating bird species. Andrei Prodan's photograph captures the essence of this unique and beautiful ecosystem, inviting us to appreciate the natural world and the wonders that lie within it.
