EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait showcases the unique beauty of a Single Wattled Cassowary (Casuarius unappendiculatus), a critically endangered bird species native to the tropical rainforests of New Guinea and northern Australia. In this studio shot taken at the Avilon Zoo in Montalban, Rizal, Philippines, the Cassowary is depicted against a stark black background, allowing its vibrant colors and intricate details to shine. With its wattled neck and distinctive yellow head and wattle, this large, flightless bird exudes an air of mystery and allure. Its expressive, red eyes, which are a striking contrast to its yellow head and blue skin, seem to pierce through the image, adding depth and intensity. The side view of its head, with its curved beak and textured, scaled skin, reveals the intricacies of this fascinating creature's anatomy. Despite being in captivity, the Cassowary's regal posture and captivating gaze convey a sense of wildness and freedom. This portrait, taken by renowned wildlife photographer Joel Sartore, is a testament to the beauty and importance of preserving the world's unique and endangered species.
