EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the graceful landing of a Cape gannet at colony C013 / 6163 on Malgas Island, Western Cape, South Africa. The majestic bird with its outstretched wings is a sight to behold against the backdrop of cloudy skies. Cape gannets are known for their nesting habits in colonies located on rocky cliffs and islands along the southern coasts of Africa. These skilled predators feed primarily on fish like herring and mackerel, diving underwater from impressive heights of up to 30 meters. Their ability to plunge into the depths with such precision showcases their exceptional hunting skills. The image beautifully highlights the intricate details of this winged creature's plumage as it prepares to touch down on land. With its keen eyes fixed ahead, it exudes an air of confidence and mastery over its surroundings. As an integral part of African fauna, these seabirds play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance within their habitat. This photograph not only celebrates the beauty and diversity found in nature but also serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect these precious species. Photographed by Peter Chadwick for Science Photo Library, this stunning image invites us into the world of Cape gannets and offers a glimpse into their fascinating lives amidst the vastness of Malgas Island's shores.
