Caroline Dawson, The Hunter’s Lesson (ANIMAL & NATURE 2024)

In this sequence, the majestic Brahminy Kite teaches its chick the ancient art of survival. From a calm perch, their eyes lock on a distant prize—a fish resting on a fence. The series captures the unfolding drama of nature as the kite takes flight, swooping down with precision, and finally claiming its catch in a swift, powerful motion. Each moment reveals the harmony of instinct, strength, and purpose.
