EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Radek Mica, flocks of ravens from northern Poland and Russia grace the skies as they arrive in the picturesque southern Czech town of Zidlochovice. Taken on November 27,2013, this mesmerizing image showcases the annual migration of these intelligent birds seeking refuge from the harsh winter weather further north. As temperatures drop and food becomes scarce in their native lands, these ravens embark on an incredible journey to find milder conditions and abundant resources. The sight of countless black wings against a clear blue sky is both awe-inspiring and symbolic of nature's resilience. Zidlochovice serves as a temporary sanctuary for these migratory creatures until mid-March when they will return to their breeding grounds. This small town nestled amidst rolling hills becomes a bustling hub for bird enthusiasts who flock here to witness this natural spectacle firsthand. Radek Mica's skillful lens captures not only the sheer number but also the graceful flight patterns of these ravens. Their synchronized movements create an ethereal dance that leaves spectators spellbound. This photograph reminds us of the intricate connections between different regions and species within our vast ecosystem. It serves as a testament to nature's ability to adapt and survive even in challenging circumstances, offering hope and inspiration for us all.
