Feathered Acrobat Masters the Art of Skimming - Black Skimmer Takes Flight!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this breathtaking snapshot captured by renowned wildlife photographer Ken Archer, we witness a true avian acrobat in action. Meet our star performer, the elegant and nimble Black Skimmer! With its striking black and white plumage contrasting against the vibrant blue Florida sky, this magnificent bird is on a mission to satisfy its hunger. As it gracefully glides just inches above the water's surface at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, our feathered friend showcases its remarkable hunting technique - skimming. With an elongated lower mandible specifically designed for this purpose, our skilled skimmer effortlessly slices through the water like a razor-sharp knife. With eyes keenly focused on spotting any unsuspecting fish below, it's as if time stands still as this aerial artist prepares for its next meal. The anticipation builds as ripples form beneath those delicate webbed feet; you can almost hear nature holding its breath! The precision and agility displayed by our talented skimmer are nothing short of awe-inspiring. It serves as a reminder that even in nature's vast playgrounds, there are always hidden talents waiting to be discovered. So let us celebrate these marvelous creatures who remind us that life is not only about survival but also about finding joy in every graceful glide. So take a moment to appreciate Danita Delimont's stunning print – an homage to one bird’s mastery of flight and fishing prowess – reminding us all that sometimes
