EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness nature's very own night owl, the Swallow-tailed Gull, showcasing its unique nesting habits on Punto Cevallos in EspaAnola (Hood) Island. This avian superstar is no ordinary gull - it's the world's only nocturnal and oceanic species! As dusk settles over Galapagos Islands, our feathery friend takes flight towards the vast sea for a sumptuous feast. But during daylight hours, it finds solace perched upon a cliffside nest with breathtaking views of Espanola Island. With its striking black and white plumage illuminated by golden sunlight, this endemic beauty steals the show. Its beady eyes gleam with intelligence as it guards its precious eggs from any potential threats.
