EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, a charismatic Pied Shag takes center stage as it perches on a rock, showcasing its unique technique for drying its wings under the warm New Zealand sun. With feathers spread wide like an elegant cape, this seabird effortlessly flaunts its mastery of wing maintenance. Known by the Maori name karuhiruhi, this delightful creature adds a touch of wild beauty to the Coromandel Peninsula's coastal landscape. Its presence is a testament to the rich biodiversity found on North Island and throughout Australasia. As we gaze upon this snapshot captured by Steffen & Alexandra Sailer, we can't help but imagine what goes through our feathered friend's mind. Is it striking a pose for an avian fashion magazine? Or perhaps engaging in some secret bird yoga session? Whatever the case may be, one thing is certain – this pied shag knows how to make drying wings look absolutely fabulous! So next time you find yourself needing some inspiration for your own self-care routine or simply seeking joy in nature's wonders, let this image remind you that even birds have their pampering rituals too.
