EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Michael S. Nolan captures a heartwarming moment in the Arctic wilderness. Against the stunning backdrop of Flatey Island, Iceland, an adult Arctic tern is seen returning from the sea with a mouthful of fish for its hungry chick. The image showcases the incredible bond between parent and offspring in the animal kingdom. The majestic Arctic tern, scientifically known as Sterna paradisaea, spreads its wings wide as it soars through mid-air, displaying its remarkable agility and grace. Its young chick stands on a rock nearby, eagerly awaiting its meal. The side view perspective allows us to appreciate both birds in their full length. In this snapshot of wildlife at play, we witness not only care and togetherness but also a beautiful example of nature's nurturing instinct. The adult tern holds onto the fish tightly while flying effortlessly above land and sea. The vibrant colors of this photograph perfectly capture the natural beauty found in Iceland's polar regions. With no people present in sight, we are reminded that these animals thrive independently within their own ecosystem. Michael S. Nolan's skillful photography transports us into this enchanting world where avian creatures roam freely amidst breathtaking landscapes. This image serves as an invitation for travelers seeking unique destinations to explore Flatey Island and witness firsthand these awe-inspiring moments shared between arctic terns and their chicks.
