EDITORS COMMENTS
Oops, I think someone forgot to pack their lunch! This Sandwich Tern decided to take a break from flying and ended up as a tasty treat for the waves. Talk about an unexpected beachside snack! This unfortunate incident took place near a charming Italian harbour in January. It seems like even the Mediterranean coast has its own way of surprising us with nature's oddities. Who knew that even in winter, the sea could serve up such peculiar sights? While it may be sad to see this beautiful bird washed ashore, let's not forget that nature works in mysterious ways. The cycle of life continues, and sometimes we stumble upon these reminders while strolling along the sandy shores. So next time you're enjoying a day at the beach, keep your eyes peeled for more than just seashells and sandcastles. You never know what surprises Mother Nature might have in store for you – perhaps another unusual sandwich special! Remember, though: wildlife should always be admired from afar and left undisturbed. Let's cherish our coastal ecosystems and do our part to protect them so that future generations can continue enjoying these incredible spectacles.
