EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Don Hadden, we witness the incredible world of New Zealand Dotterels unfold before our eyes. Perched on a sandy nest, this adorable red-breasted dotterel – also known as a red-breasted plover – steals the show with its comical antics. With beak wide open and feathers ruffled, it seems this feathered friend has quite a story to tell! Is it sharing secrets about its precious eggs nestled beneath? Or perhaps it's just expressing its excitement for the upcoming dotterel family reunion! This single dotterel showcases both grace and determination as it guards its nest in the vast Australasian landscape. Its vibrant plumage stands out against the golden sand, reminding us of nature's artistry at play. As we admire this remarkable bird through Don Hadden's lens, let us not forget that these beautiful creatures are part of an intricate ecosystem that deserves our utmost respect and protection. So next time you spot a dotterel or any other wildlife species in your own backyard or beyond, take a moment to appreciate their presence and ensure they have safe spaces to thrive. Join us in celebrating the wonders of Oceania's avian treasures captured forever in this stunning photograph. Let DH-2112 inspire you to explore more about these fascinating birds while cherishing every moment spent observing them in their natural habitat.
