EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Neil Bowman, we are transported to the picturesque Algarve region of Portugal. As if straight out of a fairytale, a bustling community of House Martins has chosen an unconventional location for their nests - under a road bridge! Against the backdrop of stunning European architecture, these agile birds have ingeniously built their mud homes beneath the sturdy arches. It's as if they've created their own exclusive neighborhood with breathtaking views and easy access to nearby waterways. April is the perfect time to witness this avian spectacle, as adult House Martins gracefully flutter around their nests tending to their young ones. With spring in full swing, these industrious creatures bring life and energy to the tranquil Portuguese countryside. The image captures not only nature's architectural marvels but also showcases how wildlife seamlessly integrates into our human-made surroundings. These Iberian beauties remind us that even amidst concrete structures, there is always room for harmony between man and nature. So next time you find yourself strolling along a bridge or exploring new horizons like these adventurous House Martins, take a moment to appreciate the wonders that surround us – both above and below!
