Madagascar Magpie-Robin in Spiny Forest
The first bird we spotted in the Spiny Forest, a place seemingly void of life, was this Madagascar Magpie-Robin. To us this photo resembles the resilience of nature, how plants seek extreme measures to fight drought, and how birds and other species master the highly hostile plant structures.

The Madagascar Magpie-Robin is a species of bird in the Muscicapidae family. It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
