EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by FLPA/Bill Coster, we witness a remarkable moment in nature's runway. Meet the elegant Oriental Darter, an adult bird showcasing its impeccable fashion sense while drying its wings on a stump amidst the tranquil waters of Keoladeo Ghana National Park. With feathers as dark and sleek as midnight silk, this avian diva knows how to make heads turn! Perched gracefully on its wooden podium, it strikes a pose that would put even top models to shame. Its outstretched wings create an awe-inspiring spectacle against the backdrop of marshy wetlands. Keen-eyed observers will notice that this dapper creature is no ordinary bird; it belongs to the unique family of snakebirds. With their long necks and sharp beaks perfectly adapted for underwater hunting, these stealthy predators are masters at blending into their watery surroundings. As our fashionable protagonist spreads its wings wide open like an exotic fan dancer from South Asia, one can't help but marvel at Mother Nature's artistry. This picture-perfect scene reminds us of the delicate balance between wildlife and their habitats. So next time you find yourself strolling through Bharatpur's enchanting national park or any other wetland sanctuary around the world, keep your eyes peeled for these marvelous creatures striking poses that could rival any supermodel on Earth!
