EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Michael Nolan, we witness a young and mischievous frigate bird perched on a branch, seemingly innocent. Little do we know that behind those adorable eyes lies a cunning thief of the Galapagos Islands! Resting on North Seymour Island in Ecuador's Galapagos Island Group, this lone sea bird takes advantage of its surroundings to carry out its notorious kleptoparasite tendencies. With its forked tail and magnificent wingspan, it swoops down upon unsuspecting victims to steal their hard-earned meals. But don't let its thieving ways fool you; this juvenile frigate bird is also an expert at taking some well-deserved breaks. As it rests peacefully amidst the breathtaking Pacific Ocean backdrop, one can't help but admire its solitary beauty. With only a single animal stealing the spotlight in this shot, it's clear that even among nature's wonders, there are individuals who stand out from the crowd. This particular avian rebel reminds us that sometimes being different means standing tall and embracing our unique qualities. So next time you visit North Seymour Island or any other part of the Galapagos Islands, keep an eye out for these charismatic troublemakers! And remember to capture moments like these with your camera lens – just make sure they're not used for commercial purposes!
