EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, captured by the talented Alison Jones in Kenya's Masai Mara, we are introduced to an extraordinary avian couple - the Lappet-faced vultures. These majestic birds, also known as Nubian vultures, grace the African landscape with their unique presence. With their striking appearance and distinctive lappets hanging from their beaks like fashionable accessories, these vultures certainly know how to make a statement! Their feathered elegance is undeniable, even if some may consider them "ugly" in traditional terms. As they lay eggs and build nests amidst the vast plains of Masai Mara, this pair showcases true dedication to family life. They form part of a larger flock that patrols the reserve as skilled predators scavenging for food. This incredible snapshot from Ardea Picture Library perfectly captures not only the beauty of these remarkable creatures but also highlights the importance of wildlife conservation efforts. Let it serve as a reminder that every animal plays an essential role in maintaining our planet's delicate ecosystem. So next time you're feeling down about your own fashion choices or just need a little inspiration from nature's finest winged wonders, look no further than this delightful image – where style meets survival in perfect harmony!
