EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this breathtaking snapshot captured by wildlife enthusiast Harri Taavetti, we witness the majestic Long-tailed Skua in all its glory. With its striking breeding plumage on full display, this avian wonder takes to the skies above the picturesque shores of Northern Norway. As if posing for a fashion magazine cover shoot, our feathered friend flaunts its elegant long tail while gracefully gliding through the air. Its sleek and streamlined body perfectly adapted for coastal life, this skua effortlessly navigates the Atlantic breeze. Hailing from Eurasia and known for their tundra-dwelling tendencies during summer months, these skilled flyers are no strangers to long-distance journeys. Whether it's soaring over Asian maritime regions or exploring North American coasts, they bring a touch of elegance wherever they go. With their presence adding charm to both European and Scandinavian landscapes, these seabirds have become symbolic ambassadors of northern Europe's rich biodiversity. Their distinctive calls echo across boreal forests as they dive into the sea in search of fishy feasts. So next time you find yourself strolling along a windswept beach in Norway or any other coastal paradise around the world, keep an eye out for these magnificent creatures gracing us with their aerial acrobatics. Let them inspire you to spread your wings and embrace life's adventures!
