EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by the talented John Cancalosi, we witness an extraordinary moment of avian togetherness. Perched on a rugged cliff ledge along the stunning UK coastline, a shag family proudly poses for their portrait. The adult shag, with its sleek black feathers and piercing yellow eyes, stands tall and protective over its adorable brood of young chicks. These fluffy bundles of joy are still in their downy phase, eagerly awaiting their next fishy feast from their doting parents. Breeding exclusively on cliff ledges and commonly found along the northwest European coast, these sea birds are known for their remarkable fishing skills. With wings that rarely grace land and an affinity for flying close to water bodies, they truly embody the spirit of coastal living. As we admire this heartwarming scene frozen in time, it's impossible not to marvel at nature's wonders. The unity within this shag family reminds us that love knows no bounds – even among our feathered friends! So let this enchanting photograph serve as a reminder to cherish our own families and appreciate the beauty around us. And if you ever spot these charismatic creatures during your seaside adventures in Europe or the United Kingdom, remember to give them a nod of admiration for being such fantastic parents!
