EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Malcolm Schuyl, a raucous scene unfolds on the sea surface off the coast of Iceland. A group of adult Northern Fulmars, known for their striking white plumage and graceful flight, find themselves embroiled in a feathery feud over a delectable seafood buffet. With beaks wide open and wings flapping furiously, these elegant seabirds showcase their wild side as they jostle for prime feeding positions. It's an avian free-for-all that would make even the most seasoned foodies envious! Against the backdrop of Iceland's stunning Nordic landscape and crystal-clear waters, this image captures not only the beauty but also the fierce competition that exists within nature. These fulmars demonstrate both cooperation and rivalry as they navigate through squabbles to secure their share of oceanic delicacies. As we observe this fascinating display of behavior from our cozy vantage point, it serves as a reminder that even in seemingly peaceful environments like coastal shores, survival instincts reign supreme. So next time you're enjoying a seaside picnic or simply gazing out at the vast expanse of water before you, spare a thought for these incredible creatures engaged in epic squabbles over scrumptious sustenance!
