Gannet on way to nest

I'd normally toss any picture of a flying bird in which a wing tip

was cut off. I had to make an exception with this one. I like the

greenery blowing back in the breeze.

Andy:

Good question. See image above. The gannets nest on steep cliffs and soar BELOW. These two images will give you an idea. The gannetry is approach from the topland. Not a place you want to be on a real windy day.

I uploaded a few images here....
