EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this breathtaking photo, a majestic Black-legged Kittiwake defies gravity as it gracefully glides through the snowy skies above Hornoi island, Norway. With its striking black legs and elegant wingspan, this adult seabird showcases the epitome of avian beauty. As winter blankets the landscape with a pristine layer of snow, our feathered friend fearlessly navigates through the cold air, leaving behind delicate shadows on the glistening white canvas below. The colony's presence adds to the charm of this snapshot - a bustling gathering spot for these sociable creatures who have chosen this coastal haven as their home. The image captures not only the bird's remarkable flight but also highlights nature's resilience in extreme weather conditions.
