EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a Mediterranean feast! This Eleonoras Falcon knows how to dine in style on the stunning island of Lemnos, Greece. With its pale morph and majestic presence, this adult falcon is ready to indulge in some Eurasian Scops-owl delicacy. As the sun sets over the Aegean Sea, our feathery predator takes center stage. The stealthy raptor has successfully hunted down its prey – an unfortunate Eurasian Scops-owl who didn't see it coming. It's a classic case of 'survival of the fittest' as this falcon demonstrates its prowess as a top avian predator. The vibrant colors of spring surround them both, creating a picturesque backdrop for this dramatic moment captured by FLPA photographer Richard Brooks. Nature truly comes alive on Lemnos Island, where ground European wildlife thrives amidst breathtaking landscapes. With each bite, our Eleonoras Falcon savors the taste of victory and nourishment. This interplay between hunter and hunted showcases nature's intricate balance and reminds us of the circle of life that unfolds daily in these enchanting ecosystems. So next time you visit Greece or any other coastal paradise, keep your eyes peeled for these magnificent birds soaring through the sky or perched atop ancient ruins. They are not just beautiful creatures but also skilled hunters who play an essential role in maintaining ecological harmony.
