EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this stunning print captured by FLPA photographer Ignacio Yufera, we witness a moment of pure joy and confidence as an adult Spot-breasted Lapwing takes center stage on the afro-alpine moorland of Bale Mountains. With its striking black-and-white plumage contrasting against the vibrant greenery, this lapwing seems to be walking with utmost pride. Perched at high altitude in Oromia, Ethiopia, these endemic birds are true masters of their domain. Known for their elegant wading skills and distinct calls that echo through the mountains, they bring life and charm to these wild landscapes. The Bale Mountains provide a perfect backdrop for this avian superstar's performance. As it struts across the moorlands with grace and determination, one can't help but feel inspired by its resilience in such extreme conditions. This is nature's way of reminding us that beauty knows no bounds! With every step it takes, our feathered friend reminds us to embrace our uniqueness and explore new heights just like it does effortlessly amidst the African highlands. So let this image transport you to a world where mountain peaks meet tropical wonders – where lapwings reign supreme!
