Graceful glider

Snow Petrel, Antarctica

The Snow Petrel became somewhat of an obsession for me on a visit to the Ross Sea region of Antarctica. These stunning birds are only found in the cold waters around Antarctica, frequently around icebergs and pack ice. Around the size of a pigeon, their entire body is pure white making it one of the most beautiful birds I have ever photographed.

This particular shot was taken as the bird glided eye to eye with me in the slipstream of our boat.
