Feathers and Folly - Flightless Cormorants Strike a Pose in the Galapagos Islands!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the comical antics of the Flightless Cormorant on Fernandina Island. These quirky seabirds, known as Phalacrocorax harrisi, have made their home in the Western Isles of the Galapagos archipelago. Isabela Island serves as another playground for these adorable creatures who have given up soaring through the skies. With their wings rendered useless over time, they've become masters of underwater acrobatics instead! Caught mid-conversation by wildlife photographer Pete Oxford, it seems like these flightless friends are having quite a serious discussion about island affairs. Perhaps they're sharing tips on nest-building or debating which fish tastes best? Endemic to South America's western isles, these charismatic cormorants showcase animal behavior at its most intriguing. Their unique adaptation has turned them into icons of survival and resilience. Danita Delimont's stunning capture beautifully encapsulates both the charm and curiosity that surround these feathered wonders. It reminds us that even without flight, life can still be full of joy and adventure. So let this delightful image transport you to an enchanting world where birds talk and islands come alive with nature's marvels!
