The bird, with its brilliant white body and long, elegant tail feathers, is perched on a mossy branch above a crystal-clear stream. Its perfect reflection is visible in the calm water below, beautifully illustrating the deep connection between the island's unique fauna and its untouched aquatic ecosystems.
