EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Bob Gibbons, witness the mesmerizing spectacle of a massive swarm of alkali flies at Mono Lake. These fascinating insects, closely related to brine flies, create an awe-inspiring sight as they gather in large groups on the lake's saline waters. As you gaze upon this snapshot, you can almost hear the gentle hum of their wings and feel the tranquility that envelops this scenic area. The tufa pinnacles rise majestically from the water, adding an ethereal touch to the already breathtaking landscape. Mono Lake's unique ecosystem serves as a haven for these resilient creatures and countless other wildlife species. It is a testament to nature's ability to thrive even in seemingly inhospitable environments like deserts and wetlands. This photograph also reminds us of the delicate balance between evaporation and water supply in such arid regions. As we marvel at these tiny flyers dancing above salt-laden waters, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect precious natural resources like Mono Lake. Let yourself be transported into this serene basin where Native American tribes like Kutzadikaa once roamed freely. Immerse yourself in North America's enchanting beauty while appreciating its rich biodiversity. So hang up this stunning print on your wall and let it serve as a daily reminder that even amidst life's hustle and bustle, there is always room for calmness and wonder
