EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured at the break of dawn, this stunning photograph showcases the vibrant colors and agility of a Common Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis), also known as Boris Lichtman, as it hovers above the still waters of Jerusalem, Israel. With the sun just beginning to rise, the dark background accentuates the intensity of the kingfisher's iridescent plumage, a brilliant display of blues, greens, and oranges. The kingfisher's piercing gaze is fixed on its prey, a wriggling tadpole, which it will soon catch and consume with a swift, powerful strike. This skilled predator is a master of patience and precision, waiting motionless in the air before plunging headfirst into the water to snatch its meal. The Common Kingfisher is a widespread and iconic waterbird, found throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa. Its distinctive hunting technique, involving the use of a propelled body to fly short distances and hover above the water before diving, is a marvel of avian adaptation. This image, taken by an unnamed photographer and displayed on 1x Gallery, offers a glimpse into the natural world's beauty and the intricate balance of life and survival.
