Look up in the sky, it's a bird! No, it's a plane! Wait. . . it's actually a Northern Gannet with an impressive six-foot wingspan showing off its high-diving skills!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This magnificent print captures the essence of this incredible sea bird as it gracefully soars through the air. Known for its sudden headlong plunges after prey, this gannet is like an avian superhero on a mission! Found over open ocean and often close to shore, these gannets prefer to hang out in loose groups, making them quite the social butterflies of the bird world. And when they're not busy diving for their next meal, you can often spot them resting on water or chilling out with their fellow feathered friends. But don't be fooled by their laid-back demeanor; these birds mean business when it comes to breeding. They gather in large colonies on rocky cliffs where they create bustling communities that would make any real estate agent jealous. And let's not forget about their winter plans - while most of us are bundling up indoors, these adventurous gannets take off into the great unknown of the open sea. Talk about living life on the edge! So if you're looking for some avian inspiration or just want to add a touch of wild beauty to your space, John Cancalosi's captivating print is sure to bring excitement and wonder into your home.
