Northern Gannets

Mating pairs of birds in colonies of thousands of Northern Gannets.

 Northern Gannets migrate to Newfoundland and Labrador annualy, nesting in large colonies such as that which can be seen at the Cape St. Mary’s rookery. They too are a species affected by the so far unstoppable oil spill– I wonder how much their numbers will change this year?
