Saw a gannet (or two) today...

I was lucky enough to go to a gannet breeding spot in NZ in 2017. Such a lovely (if aromatic!) place. 😆

I haven’t seen that many gannets since the last Hames gathering…….

Nice one Ade - Bempton Cliffs?!

I tried to look those up in Olson's Book of Standard British Birds... but someone had torn the page out. 😉

Where is this? I went to the Farne Islands a good few years back, it was amazing, so beautiful. Thank you for sharing this, has made me smile 🙂

Looks like bempton cliffs near filey 🤔

I visited Bempton for the first time that day, what a place! Think we saw you on the boat. As you say … Gannets, masters in the air 😊

They wet their nests

You did not....I haven't been out!!!😁

Hitchcock feels

Beautiful plumage...

That's what happens when you order large chips.😐

Whats the collective noun? A Bloat A devouring A gluttony

I don't like them, they wet their nests.

My old mum used to call me a gannet, and not because I looked like one of those birds lol!

WowZers ♥️

Not a Flock of Seagulls !?

Hundred? ❤️

When the new series out ?

Greedy baskets

That’s amazing! I live on the coast and have never seen one; maybe they’re not a Scottish resident?

There's loads of them. You greedy gannet spotter.

What noise does a gannet make and I'll make it. The domesticated or wild ones?

Beautiful looking birds gannets. Where were you when you filmed them?

Flamborough Head

RSPB Bempton boat trip from Bridlington?

A gourmet of gannets!

I bet you heard on or two as well?

Where’s this?

Oo-er, sounds a bit rude!

They're one of my favourite birds

They wet their nests 😳

I see you've got a new series on the telly box - Sam & Ade Go Birding in Norwich. From the Norwich Evening News... "Lifelong birder Samuel West and newly bird‑curious Adrian Edmondson head for the north Norfolk coast in their new Channel 5 series".
