Northern Gannet Portrait.

This was my first time seeing a gannet up close. They were landing at the edge of the viewing area the whole time I was there (Cape St. Mary's), which I've never witnessed before.

Thanks, Mike! Upgraded my tripod and been using it lately...sure does help, particularly by keeping the weight off my shoulders.

Mike, a terrific capture of a serene scene, topped off by both ducks sharply portrayed. Beautifully done!
