Gannets are one of my favourite sea birds Craig.

That's a fabulous picture you've taken of this guy lad - very well done.

Good luck with that Craig.

Sadly I only managed a glimpse of one when I was in Oz... pretty distant but so unmistakable of course.

I always search for Gannets when I'm on the coast.
