EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the delicate beauty of a 3-week-old Pied Oystercatcher chick in exquisite detail. With its head turned to the side, the chick's profile is highlighted against a pristine white background, allowing every feather and feature to be admired. The Pied Oystercatchers belong to a small family of shorebirds renowned for their specialized bills, perfectly adapted for extracting oysters, mussels, and limpets from their shells. This unique characteristic sets them apart in the avian world and makes them fascinating subjects for photographers like Cyril Laubscher. Taken in a studio setting, this horizontal color image showcases the bird's development at an early stage of its life. The absence of any human presence emphasizes the pureness and innocence of nature itself.
