Flyin' Fish Fiesta: This Black Skimmer knows how to make a splash in the skies of Long Island! With its sleek wings spread wide, this avian acrobat effortlessly carries a fresh catch through the air. The vibrant blue backdrop adds an artistic touch to this portrait. Watch out, New York City - this skilled fisherman is on the move! With its distinctive beak and elegant flight, the adult Black Skimmer (Rynchops niger) steals the show as it glides above the coastal waters of North America. Known for their unique feeding technique, these seabirds skim along the water's surface with their lower mandible submerged, swiftly snatching up unsuspecting fish like a pro. Captured by talented photographer Marie Read, this snapshot showcases nature's perfect balance between grace and survival. It's no wonder why bird enthusiasts flock to witness such breathtaking moments in person. So next time you find yourself strolling along Long Island's shores or gazing at New York City's skyline, keep your eyes peeled for these incredible aerial displays from our feathered friends.
