Black Skimmer Slicing Tidal Inlet Water

by Brock Mejia

Bright late-afternoon sunlight illuminates a black skimmer in mid-flight above a tidal inlet near Bor. The bird’s dark plumage contrasts sharply with the pale, rippling water below, while its distinctive lower mandible cuts a thin, silver line through the surface, creating a small wake. Dry, golden grasses line the distant bank, signaling the dry season. The low angle emphasizes the bird's sleek profile against the expansive sky. One droplet of water rests on the tip of the lower bill before falling back into the shimmering channel.
