EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the majestic flight of a Great Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus), its wings spread wide as it glides effortlessly over the shimmering waters of the Liuwa Plains in Zambia. In the background, a mesmerizing scene unfolds as a flock of Avocets (Recurvirostra sp.) wade through the shallow waters, their distinctive upward-curved bills pointed towards the sky. The Great Pelican, also known as the Eastern White Pelican, is the largest living pelican species, with a wingspan that can reach up to 3.5 meters (11.5 feet). Historically, these birds were hunted for their meat, which was considered a delicacy in Europe and North America. However, their populations were decimated due to overexploitation, and they remain listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List. Avocets, on the other hand, are medium-sized wading birds that are well adapted to living in wetlands. They have a distinctive posture, with their long, up-curved bills held above the water as they search for food. Avocets were once considered rare and endangered, but conservation efforts have helped to stabilize their populations in many parts of the world. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the Liuwa Plains, a remote and largely unspoiled wetland ecosystem that is home to a wide variety of bird and wildlife species. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving these fragile habitats and protecting the remarkable creatures that call them home.
