Northern Gannets – Love at First Site

Love at First Site – It is quite a sight to see when one of the Northern Gannet pair returns to the nest. The elaborate greeting rituals of these beautiful sea birds include arching of the necks and bodies and gentle tapping of the beaks. Of course, in a colony the size of the one in Newfoundland, there is no privacy but it does not seem to bother this pair.
