Wow - this is excellent. Very pleased to bring up 30! I was here a few days ago - on the mainland - but no gannets in sight!

Beautiful bird beautifully taken Mike, the quality of that lens shows through mate.

Regards

Trev.

Thanks all, and a special thanks to Ann for the UA

There shouldn't be any Gannets on Bass rock until spring Ann, they only come to land to breed, spending the rest of their time feeding at sea.
