EDITORS COMMENTS
Move over, it's nest migration time! These Imperial Shags on the Falkland Islands have got their moving game down to a science. Just like nomads of the animal kingdom, these blue-eyed beauties are constantly on the move, but don't worry, they're not going far! In this print captured by Martin Zwick from DanitaDelimont. com, we witness a deserted nest colony that once buzzed with activity. It seems these King Shags have decided it's time for a change of scenery and moved just a few meters away. But why bother moving at all? Well, maybe they just wanted to spice things up in their avian neighborhood or perhaps they were searching for better real estate options. Whatever the reason may be, one thing is for sure - these shags know how to keep life interesting! With their sleek black feathers and striking blue eyes, these seabirds are truly a sight to behold. And as residents of Sub-Antarctica and South America's Falkland Islands, they've mastered the art of cohabitation with other species. So next time you feel like your living situation needs an upgrade or you simply want some inspiration for your own home decor choices (bird-themed anyone?), take a cue from these adventurous Imperial Shags. After all, who says nesting has to be boring?
