Gannets: Majestic Divers of the Sea Witness the breathtaking spectacle as a Northern Gannet gracefully plunges into the depths of the ocean, hunting for fish near Bass Rock in Scotland. With its wings spread wide, this magnificent bird turns in mid-air before diving with precision and speed. The Shetland Islands also serve as a backdrop to another stunning display of gannet diving prowess. Bass Rock becomes an avian paradise, adorned with flocks and seagulls, creating a mesmerizing sight that captivates all who behold it. Amongst them, an adult Gannet stands out as it prepares to take flight and dive fearlessly into the water below. In Shetland's rugged landscapes, witness a heartwarming scene - a fluffy Gannet chick nestled beside its proud parent. These islands provide sanctuary for these beautiful creatures during August when they raise their young. Stac Lee and Stac an Armin stand tall as home to colonies of Northern Gannets. These rocky outcrops are bustling hubs where these birds congregate and create thriving communities. As evening descends upon Bempton Cliffs in Yorkshire, England, catch sight of a solitary Gannet silhouetted against the vibrant hues of sunset, and is here that these birds find solace on their migratory journeys. Travel across continents to Muriwai gannet colony off New Zealand's west coast near Auckland North Island. Established over a century ago, this site became a haven for gannets after white terms left their previous nesting grounds behind. High above St Kilda's cliff tops lies yet another captivating view - low clouds enveloping a Northern Gannet colony. The ethereal atmosphere adds an air of mystery to this already enchanting scene. Whether they are diving for mackerel off Sheltand or soaring through skies around cliffs worldwide, gannets never fail to amaze.
