Late departures inevitable...

I was somewhat surprised this week to see so many non fledged juvenile Gannets on Grassholm. Calm conditions allowed us to approach the Gannet colony on Grassholm without us bouncing about too much for use of zoom lenses. As can be seen, some were ready for imminent departure (centre bottom) weras (right top), One was still quite downey and still some way to go. allthingsgood,cliff
