EDITORS COMMENTS
Who needs a runway when you can take off from a sandbank? This Chinese Crested Tern is showing off its flying skills over the picturesque Minjiang Estuary in Fujian Province, China. With its elegant wings spread wide and feathers glistening under the July sun, this rare and endangered bird effortlessly glides through the coastal breeze. Known for its distinctive plumage and captivating presence, the Chinese Crested Tern adds a touch of oriental charm to these waters. Its sleek body perfectly blends with the surrounding wetlands, making it an elusive sight for nature enthusiasts. As it soars above the estuary's sparkling waters, one can't help but marvel at its graceful flight. This critically endangered species has found solace in these protected habitats along China's coastlines. The sandy banks provide a safe haven where they can rest during their non-breeding season. With each flap of its wings, this adult tern reminds us of the importance of preserving our natural world and safeguarding these delicate ecosystems. Captured by FLPA photographer John Holmes, this stunning image freezes a moment that encapsulates both beauty and vulnerability. Let it serve as a reminder to cherish our wildlife treasures and work towards their conservation efforts.
