beyond man and time

A Secretarybird gazes at the camera, pausing after preening their feathers and angling their head into the wind. Their dramatic head feathers sway in the breeze behind them. Their head, neck, and stomach have bright white feathers; their face is red, fading into yellow at their beak that fades into white at the sharp tip; their back is pearly gray; and their tail and leg feathers are deep black.
The Secretarybird turns and walks off into the grass to forage, showcasing their enormous profile to the camera as they stare intently at the ground.
