EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a fishy feast! This Cape Gannet knows how to make a splash as it dives underwater and feasts on a 'baitball' school of small bait fish. Located off the stunning Port St. Johns in South Africa's 'Wild Coast', this adult gannet is living its best life, enjoying the bountiful oceanic buffet. With its sleek feathers and sharp beak, this predator is perfectly equipped for hunting in the coastal waters of Eastern Cape. The gannet's impressive plunge into the depths showcases its incredible diving skills, capturing our attention and leaving us in awe. As part of a larger group catch, these gannets work together to corral their prey into tight shoals known as baitballs. It's like witnessing an underwater ballet orchestrated by nature itself! The vibrant marine life surrounding these coasts provides ample sustenance for these majestic seabirds. From sardines to pilchards, there's no shortage of delicious treats for them to enjoy during their feeding frenzy. So next time you find yourself exploring the beautiful shores of South Africa, keep an eye out for these skilled hunters taking flight and diving headfirst into adventure. They truly are masters of both land and sea!
