EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a feast in the skies! These four adult Lesser Kestrels are having a field day, quite literally, as they swoop and dive over a barley field in Northern Spain. With their keen eyesight and lightning-fast reflexes, these magnificent falcons are attracted to the insects stirred up by a combine harvester during harvest season. It's like an all-you-can-eat buffet for these aerial acrobats! In this stunning print captured by Roger Tidman from FLPA Images, you can see the sheer joy on their faces (if birds could smile) as they effortlessly navigate through the air. They're not just any ordinary birds; they're skilled predators of the sky. As farming machinery works tirelessly below, these Asian visitors take full advantage of the insect bonanza. Hovering above the fields with grace and precision, they disturb their prey before swiftly pouncing upon them mid-air. It's nature's version of fast food delivery! This snapshot perfectly encapsulates both rural life and wildlife coexisting harmoniously in Spain's countryside. The combination of picturesque landscapes, bustling farmland, and majestic creatures is truly awe-inspiring. So next time you witness a combine harvester at work or spot some Lesser Kestrels soaring overhead during summer months, remember that it's not just another day on the farm – it’s an exhilarating display of nature at its finest!
