In a quiet embrace of nature, a great crested grebe navigates the still waters with its chicks securely nestled on its back. The soft ripples reflect the lush greenery beyond, amplifying the peacefulness of this intimate family moment. The chicks, with their downy feathers and alert eyes, cling close, trusting their parent’s steady glide. This image encapsulates the quiet strength and nurturing instinct of wild birds, offering a glimpse into the delicate balance of life on the water. Photographer Ruslan Pl. captures the grace and tenderness with remarkable clarity.
