Beach Bumming with the Fashionable New Zealand Dotterel!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this stunning print captured by FLPA/Roger Tidman, we witness a true fashionista of the avian world strutting its stuff on a picturesque beach in New Zealand. The adult New Zealand Dotterel is sporting its breeding plumage, which can only be described as haute couture for birds! With its elegant coastal attire and impeccable style, this dotterel knows how to make heads turn. Its rare marine breeding maritime plumage shines under the November sun, making it an absolute showstopper amidst the sandy shores. But don't let its fashionable appearance fool you; this dotterel means business when it comes to foraging! With razor-sharp focus and quick reflexes, it skillfully scours the beach for delectable treats hidden beneath the sand. Talk about multitasking - looking fabulous while hunting for food! Sadly, these beautiful creatures are endangered due to various threats they face in their natural habitat. So let's take a moment to appreciate not only their striking beauty but also their resilience in adapting to life on both land and sea. So next time you find yourself strolling along a breathtaking coastline in Australasia, keep your eyes peeled for these dapper dotterels. They're not just any ordinary shorebirds; they're nature's very own runway models!
