Witness the mesmerizing flight of the Black-headed gull (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), captured artistically in a blurred photograph that accentuates its elegance and freedom. Sterna antillarum, also known as the least tern, glides effortlessly above crystal-clear waters, reminding us of nature's delicate balance and resilience.
