After several hours of waiting patiently, award-winning wildlife photographer Mainak Halder captured this special moment, highlighting the little grebe and her baby through a shallow depth of field and a dream-like reflection. He tells us the story behind this shot...
"During the monsoon season of 2022, I was on an expedition at the Purbasthali Bird Sanctuary, West Bengal, India. All of a sudden, I saw a mother little grebe roaming around in the wetland area and carrying her baby on her back. It was an adorable moment.
