Bird Photographer of the Year 2022

'For the Love of Birds' by Thomas Wester

Try as we might, humans cannot understand fluid dynamics as birds do. Whether they are primarily flyers or swimmers, birds have an innate understanding of lift and other aerodynamic forces that put the best engineers to shame. Shown here are a subset of winners from the 2022 Bird Photographer of the Year competition, each of them showing off fluid dynamics in some fashion. Hummingbirds hover, droplets shine like diamonds, and divers brace for impact. You can peruse more winner at BPOTY’s website. (Image credits: Various; see alt text of individual images)
