Quack-tastic Gathering - A Sea of Feathers in Iceland's Coastal Playground!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by wildlife photographer Terry Whittaker, we witness the mesmerizing sight of Common Eiders flocking together off the picturesque coast of Snaefellsnes, Vesturland. These adult males and females are gracefully swimming amidst the vast Atlantic waters, showcasing their stunning plumage and creating a vibrant spectacle. The Eiders' presence adds an extra dash of charm to Iceland's already breathtaking landscape. With its subarctic climate and Nordic allure, this island nation proves to be an irresistible playground for these elegant waterfowl. As they navigate through the chilly maritime currents, their synchronized movements create a harmonious dance that is nothing short of awe-inspiring. These social birds have chosen this coastal haven as their winter retreat from North America and Europe. Their choice couldn't be more perfect! Against the backdrop of rugged cliffs and serene islands dotting the horizon, these feathery friends find solace in each other's company while basking in nature's splendor. So next time you're exploring Iceland's enchanting shores during March or any other time when these delightful creatures visit, keep your eyes peeled for this lively gathering. Witnessing such a magnificent display will surely leave you quacking with joy!
