EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a mesmerizing sight unfolds as a flock of starlings gracefully soar over an expansive agricultural field near the southern Israeli city of Netivot. Taken on February 12,2014, by photographer Amir Cohen, the image captures the beauty and wonder of nature's migration patterns. These starlings embark on an incredible journey from central and Eastern Europe to seek refuge in Israel during the winter months. As they traverse vast distances across continents, their synchronized flight creates a breathtaking spectacle against the backdrop of golden fields. The photograph showcases not only the harmonious movement of these birds but also highlights their vital role in maintaining ecological balance. The starlings' presence benefits local farmers by naturally controlling pests that could harm crops in this agricultural region. Amidst a serene landscape bathed in warm sunlight, Cohen's lens immortalizes this fleeting moment where nature takes center stage. The sheer number of starlings fills the sky with life and energy, reminding us of our interconnectedness with wildlife and our responsibility to protect it. This remarkable image serves as a reminder that even amidst human settlements and cultivated lands, nature finds its way to thrive. It invites viewers to appreciate both the grandeur and fragility inherent within our natural world while inspiring awe for these magnificent creatures who choose Israel as their temporary home each year.
