EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this stunning snapshot captured by FLPA/Ignacio Yufera, we witness the incredible fashion sense of a Black Heron (Egretta ardesiaca) in action. This adult heron takes its fishing game to the next level by using its wings as a stylish 'umbrella' to shade the water below. Located at Lake Zeway in the magnificent Great Rift Valley of Ethiopia, this elegant bird showcases not only its impeccable taste but also its clever hunting technique. With a flair for drama and practicality, it creates a shady spot on the water's surface, attracting fish with its cool vibes. This unique behavior is truly captivating! As our fashionable friend patiently waits under its winged canopy, unsuspecting prey swim into view. With lightning-fast reflexes and precision accuracy, it seizes every opportunity to satisfy its appetite. The Black Heron's tropical charm adds an exotic touch to this already breathtaking scene. Its presence reminds us of the diverse wildlife that thrives in Ethiopia's fresh waters and wetlands. So let us applaud this avian trendsetter for showing us how to make a splash while staying shaded! Whether you're fishing or just enjoying some sunshine by the lake, take inspiration from our fabulous feathered friend – embrace your own style and always remember your trusty 'umbrella'. . . or wings!
