EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty of a Swallow-tailed Gull in its natural habitat at Baia Darwin on Genovesa Island in the Galapagos Islands. The intricate details of this elegant sea bird, known scientifically as Creagrus furcatus, are brought to life by photographer M. Watson.
The Swallow-tailed Gull is a unique species found exclusively in the Galapagos Islands, making this image a rare and special glimpse into the diverse wildlife of this remote archipelago. With its distinctive forked tail and striking black and white plumage, the gull stands out against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
In this moment captured by Watson, we see two Swallow-tailed Gulls engaged in grooming and preening their feathers, showcasing their meticulous care for maintaining their appearance. The peaceful scene conveys a sense of tranquility and harmony with nature that is characteristic of these pristine islands.
As we admire this photograph, we are reminded of the importance of preserving natural habitats like Baia Darwin as national parks and nature reserves for future generations to enjoy. Let us cherish and protect these precious ecosystems so that magnificent creatures like the Swallow-tailed Gull can continue to thrive in their island paradise.
