Northern Gannet

Northern Gannet Northern Gannet 1 Northern Gannet
David and I spent the afternoon at Escuminac and came across this Northern Gannet along the shore. It appeared to be injured, possibly with a broken wing. We reported it to the park owners and they called the Dept. of Natural Resources. Not sure if they would be able to do anything for it or not. It seemed very calm and people were keeping a respectful distance. Didn’t seem bothered by a few concerned spectators. A beautiful bird.
