Silhouetted Kingfisher Diving Over Glacial Stream in above a glacial stream near Lviv

Silhouetted Kingfisher Diving Over Glacial Stream

by Bonnie Hendrix

Bright late afternoon sun backlights a small kingfisher frozen mid-dive above a rushing glacial stream near Lviv. The bird appears as a sharp, dark silhouette against the brilliant, dry mountain light, its wings tucked tight for speed. Below, the water churns with white foam and fine sea spray rising from the rapid current, catching the light in tiny, scattered diamonds. The stream bed reveals smooth, grey stones visible through the clear, cold water. Early summer greenery lines the banks in soft focus, against the stark, high-contrast action of the predator. at the edge shows a single droplet of water suspended on the tip of the bird's beak.
