Gannet Watching

I've never had the opportunity to watch Gannets feeding so close to the Kent coast as I did on Wednesday.   High tide brought them close into the Dungeness coast.   So with my new-found "skills" or lack of unfortunately, I tried a few flight shots.

They were rubbish, but at least you can see the acrobatics that these amazing birds go through to get their food.

So streamlined this is the water as only the wing tips are showing!

Gannets showing that they really are the masters of diving!
