长岛,巴哈马群岛,1986

中文注释：

一群灰颈长脚鹬掠过环绕巴哈马的长岛水域。长岛是哥伦布的第一次“新世界”航程中所标注的第三个岛屿，他把它命名为La Fernandina，这名字可能取自他的4岁私生子的名字，也可能取自资助他完成航程的西班牙君主。

英文注释：

Black Necked Stilts, Bahama Islands, 1986

A flock of black-necked stilts glides over the waters surrounding Long Island in the Bahamas. Considered to be the third island that Columbus charted during his first voyage to the New World in 1492, he named it La Fernandina, perhaps after his illegitimate 4-year-old son or after the Spanish monarch who helped finance his voyage.
