EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing sight of flocks of thousands of Black-tailed Godwits near the Tagus River Nature Reserve in Vila Franca de Xira, Portugal. The image captures a moment in time where these magnificent birds take flight, creating a breathtaking spectacle against the backdrop of the Iberian Peninsula. The Black-tailed Godwit, scientifically known as Limosa limosa, is a common sight in this Mediterranean country and represents an important part of its diverse fauna. As they soar through the sky with grace and precision, their synchronized movements form an awe-inspiring display that leaves birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts spellbound. The Tagus River Nature Reserve provides an ideal habitat for these migratory birds during their stopover on their long journeys between breeding grounds in Western Europe and wintering areas further south. This protected area offers them ample food sources and shelter amidst its picturesque landscapes. Photographer Mauricio Abreu has masterfully captured this scene, showcasing his talent for capturing wildlife moments with stunning clarity. His composition allows viewers to appreciate not only the sheer number of birds but also their intricate flight patterns against the scenic beauty of Ribatejo region. This print serves as a reminder of both Portugal's rich biodiversity and our responsibility to protect it for future generations to enjoy.
