EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by FLPA/Terry Whittaker, the picturesque coastal harbor of Husavik comes alive with a delightful commotion. As commercial fishing boats dot the crystal-clear waters, they find themselves accompanied by an unexpected flock of Common Eiders – those adorable Somateria mollissima ducks! With their vibrant feathers glistening under the Nordic sun, these feathered friends add a touch of whimsy to the already stunning scenery. It's as if they've decided to take a break from their usual aquatic adventures and join forces with their human counterparts for some nautical fun. As the boats gently sway on the subpolar waves, it seems that even nature can't resist joining in on this playful spectacle. The eiders gracefully paddle alongside them, forming a harmonious tableau that showcases both man-made marvels and Mother Nature's finest creations. This enchanting scene reminds us of Iceland's unique charm – where breathtaking landscapes meet wildlife wonders at every turn. From its majestic mountains to its awe-inspiring coastlines, this island nation never ceases to amaze. So next time you find yourself strolling along Skjalfandi Bay or exploring any other corner of Iceland's Atlantic paradise, keep your eyes peeled for unexpected surprises like these delightful eider companions. After all, who knows what other magical encounters await in this Nordic haven?
