Fishy Business and Chatty Birds - A Tern-tastic Encounter in Texel!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by Jari Peltomaki, we witness a lively scene straight out of a bird soap opera! Two Common terns (Sterna hirundo) take center stage, each with their own unique role to play. On the left, we have our dashing protagonist flaunting his latest conquest – a mouthwatering fish dangling from his beak. With an air of triumph, he proudly displays his catch for all to see. Surely, no other seabird can match his fishing prowess! Meanwhile, on the right side of the frame, we find our feathery diva belting out her melodious tunes. Is she cheering on her friend's successful hunt or perhaps demanding her share of the spoils? We can only imagine what words are being exchanged between these two charismatic characters. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Texel in the Netherlands during May 2009, this print perfectly captures both the beauty and drama that unfold within nature's realm. The vibrant colors and vertical composition add an extra touch of flair to this avian spectacle. So grab your popcorn and settle in for a front-row seat as these charming terns steal the show with their comical antics and vocal talents. It's nature at its finest – where feeding frenzy meets feathered symphony!
