A couple of weeks ago I posted some images of a Australasian Gannet or Tākapu colony.
This week I am just going to post some closer images of the birds, including a pair bonding (I assume this is what it is) at a nest site. No more text this week, just pictures!

In a neat bit of number symmetry - this is WBW 246 and 1101 for my Photo-Gallery!

What beautiful birds, gorgeous shots!
Hello Stewart, Awesome capture of the Gannets. I have only seen them diving into the ocean, these are great closeups. Thanks for hosting. Have a happy week!
one of my top ten favorite birds :) Love to see your images :)
Wow, Stewart! These are fabulous!! Photographing Australasian Gannets like this is on my birding bucket list.
Such sweet canoodling!
Gentle and tender ... sets a great example for others. These are beautiful pictures and are you lucky to be privy to these moments in their lives. Loved your signs in India too ... brought a smile to my face. Hope all is well. Are you moving into fall now as we are moving (finally) into Spring. A few days of warm and then more days of cold. Summer isn't my favorite time, but at least you can count on it being some kind of warm:) Be well, Stewart :)

Great photos of the gannets. I've always thought their coloring makes them look so elegant.
They are such beautiful birds, I wish I could my eye make up that well :-) Cheers Diane

They look so much like our own Northern Gannet that I think I need to read up your Australian version.
Pure genius, I love the Gannets. Brilliant Stewart.

Beautiful photos of beautiful birds!
The Gannets are so beautiful and graceful. They remind me of when I visited a breeding colony in Newfoundland when I was researching my family history.
Just beautiful! They do look like they are bonding. Gorgeous photos!
