Guys, the BBC should take exemple on your work, it's just stunning. The shots are just breathtaking ! They must have been quite hard to get !

We had a Northern Gannett show up at Point Reyes National Seashore a few years ago. I was out on Chimney Rock near where the Elephant Seals haul up, and the gannett was at the extreme west end of that particular point. I managed to get my scope on it and could basically tell it wasn’t one of the many standard birds of the area, but it was really far away. I was putting my scope away preparatory to leaving when it suddenly flew to where I was and less than 50 feet away began diving. It was magnificent!

Excellent footage, very nicely done.

Such a beautiful production, thank you for making it. An inspiring video for my 6 year old son who appreciates the wonders of world. :)

[@SusanSaferstein]

Stunning and moving . Thank you for making this available to all.

Gannets are for sure some of my favorite birds, excellent footage! When I’m older I definitely want to go birding up in Newfoundland to see these fellas

[@zigarten]

Absolutely stunning video production! Well done, as good if not better than some of the commercially produced. Loved it!!

[@nickkirillov]

What a spectacular video!! Utterly amazing, thank you so much!

[@colleenrentis7331]

Really enjoyed this beautiful film. So well done. Hated to see the little ones that don't make it when they take off. Thank you for sharing.

I've seen gannets up close here in Perce QC. Quite stunning to see the large numbers of nests. There is a chilling reality when not only will some chicks die by predation, not flying, but also by being born too late in the season. I've also read that climate change has affected food sources and that too threatens this and many other species. Thankfully, many juveniles survive the test and return to nest as adults. Beautiful cinematography! Thanks Cornell.

I found an adult male washed up on the beach, they've been my favorite birds ever since. Excellent footage, cheers

Gannets are fascinating birds. Since 1991 they breed on Heligoland in the German Bight. I am looking forward to April 2020, when I'll take my next group of students there, being guests at the Alfred Wegener Institute and doing some research on marine ecosystems and standing in the red cliffs watching the birds hunting, courting, mating just a few meters away.

[@JJs-ClassC-Adventures]

Great job explaining the life of the Northern Gannett. This detailed information can be really hard to find.

[@dr.vivekanandats7331]

Beautiful making. Congrats...

[@riocorbones]

Un lugar increíble para disfrutar de las aves marinas. El video extraordinario, enhorabuena.

[@accountmann]

Thank you for showing us an unseen world. The first flight had stricken me deeply. Lots of love for your efforts. I hope your viewers will increase.

[@aralynrivers7162]

I loved this video, so beautiful and pure. I cried when the little chick fell though. Poor guy

[@sarah-altaria6422]

BEAUTIFUL TAKING

[@meta527II]

I partially expected this video to have some footage of the Gannet chicks getting vored by pelicans since I’ve seen a video of that happening

[@mooseknuckle8334]

Ever been told "you eat like a gannet"?

[@melisastone231]

I'm very curious. How DO the breeding pairs find each other? I hope we figure it out sometime soon

[@M1GarandMan3005]

Name of the music, please?

[@Peter_Siri]

it sure ain't easy being a Gannet. Also, aren't they proof that long-distance relationships can work?

[@footfault1941]

An imressive first flight by a chick is captured. An awkward moment just after taking off soon turns into elegant aerial maneuver. In contrast, a failed individual tells another (important & intriguing) story. Pity, for those youngs' landing performance is missing.

[@koostory1776]

Just here because Gordon Ramsay ate this bird 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼
