EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grace and beauty of a Black-shouldered Kite in action. The image showcases this magnificent bird of prey as it soars through the skies of Savuti, Botswana, carrying nesting material in its talons. Against the backdrop of Africa's stunning landscape, this solitary creature stands out with its striking black and white plumage. The Black-shouldered Kite, scientifically known as Elanus caeruleus, is a common sight in southern Africa. With its keen eyesight and agile flight capabilities, it is an efficient hunter that primarily feeds on small rodents. However, this particular moment focuses on another aspect of its life - building a nest for future generations. Intriguingly captured mid-flight, we witness the kite's determination to secure suitable materials for its nest-building endeavors. This behavior not only highlights their resourcefulness but also emphasizes their commitment to ensuring a safe haven for their offspring. As nature enthusiasts gaze upon this awe-inspiring photograph by GE from Discover Images by AWL, they are reminded of the intricate web that connects all living creatures within our ecosystem. It serves as a reminder to cherish and protect these remarkable animals who play vital roles in maintaining balance within our natural world.
