EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking photo captures the serene beauty of Lake Kerkini at sunrise, as a flock of majestic Dalmatian pelicans gracefully descend onto its tranquil waters. Located in the heart of Lake Kerkini National Park, Serres, Greece, this protected sanctuary serves as a haven for these magnificent birds during their breeding season. The image showcases the striking contrast between the vibrant orange hues of the rising sun and the silhouettes of these elegant creatures gliding across the water's surface. Their distinctive plumage stands out against the calm backdrop, creating a captivating scene that epitomizes nature's artistry. Lake Kerkini is renowned for its diverse wildlife and rich wetlands, making it an ideal habitat for numerous bird species. The Dalmatian pelican, with its impressive wingspan and regal presence, is particularly emblematic of this region. As they migrate through Europe and pass through Northern Greece en route to their breeding grounds in Eastern Europe and Asia Minor, Lake Kerkini becomes a vital stopover point for these remarkable creatures. This photograph not only celebrates the natural wonders found within Lake Kerkini National Park but also reminds us of our responsibility to protect such fragile ecosystems. It serves as a reminder that by preserving places like this sanctuary in Serres, we can continue to witness awe-inspiring moments like these for generations to come.
