20110630 - 2 722 SERIES - Northern Gannets HP xxx.jpg

Cape St Mary's Ecological Reserve, NL

Nine images entitled:

THE MATING PERCH or
THE REPLENISHMENT OF THE GANNET COLONY or
STUDENT DRIVER or
SOMEONE GIVE THIS GUY A ROAD MAP or
A PLACE WITH NO PRIVACY or....or - Have your pick, I couldn't decide.

This series is a continuation of my posting of yesterday at http://www.pbase.com/hankvv/image/136962455

Top Image: "Hi Honey! Sorry I'm late."


"What took you so long? Didn't you know I only rented this perch for five minutes?"


"Not up there man" - as he grabs her by her head.


"OK, just let me get comfy."


"Finally."


"Get off now, you are hurting me." "Stop pulling on my head."


"OK, I'm getting off."


MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.


"NOW, WHERE DID HE GO!"

Nikon D300S ,Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF AF-S

Those gannets are surreal birds - almost look like someone painted on the faces over smooth, plaster skulls. Amazing images with super detail and life style in their summer habitat. V
