EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by the talented Maresa Pryor, we witness a thrilling wildlife encounter on the stunning beaches of Florida's Gulf of Mexico. A brave and determined Black Skimmer takes center stage as it valiantly defends its precious minnow from other greedy contenders. With its striking black and white plumage contrasting against the sandy backdrop, our feathered hero showcases both elegance and strength in one breathtaking moment. This incredible display of behavior reminds us that even in nature, sharing isn't always easy! The protective instincts of this territorial skimmer are truly awe-inspiring. As it swoops down with lightning speed, beak poised to strike any intruders who dare come near its prized meal, we can't help but cheer for this fearless defender. Danita Delimont's exceptional photography skills bring every detail to life - from the delicate ripples in the water to each grain of sand beneath their tiny feet. It's a snapshot that transports us right into the heart of this mesmerizing scene. So next time you find yourself on a beach stroll along Florida's coastlines, keep an eye out for these remarkable creatures. And remember, when it comes to food-sharing etiquette among skimmers – don't mess with their minnows!
