I'm a big fan of the gannet too! Biggest bird in the north Atlantic.

Excellent! :)

While were talking about Gannets in flight, here are a few from 2005 Newfoundland, heavy crops, but whet they do when diving is worth it even in low res.

Watch the shape of the wings change;

That's an impressive thing to capture, I love the last one before impact, looks like a rocket!

Edit: If that "Excellent! :)" is meant for me then thanks, it appeared in between me seeing your post and my reply so it appeared in the reply but wasn't showing in your post above it. Confused me for a sec until I refreshed the page. :)

Very nice series. They almost turn themselves into a spear...quite incredible.

Thanks for posting these really are fascinating and magnificent photos.
Ends up like a rocket in full flight. Quite some projectile

That is gorgeous. Gracefully so.
And it looks so effortless on the birds behalf. The dynamics of flying.

I am intrigued with the varying wings, actions etc. This thread is an excellent site for detailed observations.
Something not easy, (to) hard, to appreciate by just sitting and watching birds fly about.
