EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Yuriko Nakao in February 2004, an ostrich stands tall and resilient amidst the cold weather at Daito Kensetsu ostrich farm in Asahi town, located in northern Japan. The image serves as a testament to the unwavering spirit of these magnificent creatures. During this time, when bird flu outbreaks were prevalent, the demand for ostrich meat soared dramatically. According to the farm's spokesperson, shipments of ostrich meat increased by over 30 percent. This surge can be attributed to the fact that ostrich meat is not only delicious but also boasts several health benefits. It is low in cholesterol, fat, and calories—making it an ideal addition to Asahi town's school catering menu. The photograph encapsulates both the beauty of nature and its ability to adapt even under challenging circumstances. The serene expression on the ostrich's face exudes confidence and resilience despite adverse conditions. Yuriko Nakao skillfully captures this moment with her lens—a snapshot frozen in time that tells a story beyond words. Through her lens, we are reminded of how nature continues to provide sustenance while adapting to changing times. This Reuters Images capture reminds us that even during difficult periods marked by disease outbreaks or other challenges faced by communities worldwide—there is always hope and strength found within our natural surroundings if we look closely enough.
