EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stunning full-length portrait, a white-tailed tropicbird, Phaethon lepturus, gracefully takes flight against the backdrop of a clear blue sky over Fregate Island in the Seychelles. The tropical paradise setting is further accentuated by the vibrant colors of the Indian Ocean visible below. With its distinctive white tail feathers streaming behind, this magnificent bird exhibits the agility and elegance that makes it a favorite among birdwatchers and natural history enthusiasts. The white-tailed tropicbird, also known as the yellow-billed tropicbird, is a large seabird found primarily in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Known for their long, curved beaks and slender bodies, these birds are well adapted to their marine environment. They are often seen flying low over the water, using their long, webbed feet to skim the surface for food. This portrait, captured by renowned wildlife photographer Sergio Pitamitz, offers a unique perspective of the bird in flight. The side view allows us to appreciate the intricate details of its feathers, as well as the powerful wings that enable it to soar through the air with such ease. The soft, natural lighting and the serene atmosphere of the scene make this image a true masterpiece, transporting us to the idyllic shores of Fregate Island and allowing us to witness the beauty and grace of this remarkable bird.
