EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stunning portrait captured by renowned wildlife photographer Sergio Pitamitz on Denis Island, Seychelles, a Common White or Fairy Tern, scientifically known as Gygis alba, gracefully takes flight against the backdrop of the tropical Indian Ocean. The delicate and slender tern, with its pristine white plumage and black wingtips, looks directly at the camera, inviting us into its world. The Common White Tern is a small seabird species native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Known for their agility and speed, they are often seen hovering above the water's surface before plunging into the ocean to catch fish. This full-length portrait from a unique perspective, taken from below, showcases the bird's intricate wing structure and the elegance of its flight. Denis Island, a beautiful and remote destination in the Seychelles archipelago, serves as the perfect backdrop for this image. The island's pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and abundant wildlife make it an ideal location for observing and photographing these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. This portrait is a testament to the beauty and grace of the Common White Tern, reminding us of the importance of preserving and protecting these delicate creatures and their habitats for future generations to enjoy. The serene and peaceful atmosphere of this image invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the wonders it holds.
