Silhouetted Marabou Stork on Termite Mound Dawn
by Harold Soto
Heavy overcast skies cast a flat, diffused glow across the misty early morning landscape near Sulaymaniyah. A massive marabou stork stands rigid atop a weathered termite mound, its dark feathers merging into a sharp silhouette against the pale, hazy sky. The bird's long, curved beak points downward while its thick legs anchor it to the rough, earthen surface. Surrounding the mound, low-lying mist rests on the sparse grasses of the game trail, softening the transition between the dark foreground and the bright, featureless horizon. The raw texture of the mound contrasts with the smooth, uniform light of the dawn, highlighting the bird's imposing profile against the turning season.
