Great Shearwaters - Masters of the Sea, Storm Chasers Extraordinaire!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the magnificent Great Shearwaters in action along Race Point at Cape Cod National Seashore. These seabirds, known as Ardenna gravis in scientific terms, are true experts when it comes to foraging for bunker or Menahden fish. Normally found far out at sea, these elusive creatures rarely venture close to shore unless stirred by tempestuous storms. However, our lucky photographer managed to capture a rare moment where these feathered acrobats grace us with their presence. With wings spread wide and bodies gliding effortlessly above the Atlantic waves, these Great Shearwaters showcase their impeccable flying skills. They navigate through the open ocean like seasoned pilots on an endless adventure. As common inhabitants of North America's coastlines, they bring life and vibrancy to our shores. Their pelagic journeys take them across vast distances as they explore the bountiful depths beneath them. This particular snapshot serves as a reminder of nature's wonders and its ability to surprise us even in unexpected places. So next time you find yourself gazing out into the horizon during a stormy day on Cape Cod's sandy beaches, keep an eye out for these remarkable avian travelers - The Great Shearwaters!
