EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a fishy feast! These Cape Gannets are taking the term 'dive-bombing' to a whole new level as they plunge into the depths of the ocean to catch their lunch. With six adults in action, it's like watching an underwater ballet performed by these skilled hunters. Offshore Port St. Johns, South Africa, is where this incredible spectacle unfolds. The Wild Coast provides the perfect backdrop for nature's own fishing frenzy. As if synchronized, these majestic birds work together to create a baitball buffet - a swirling mass of small baitfish that becomes irresistible to our hungry gannets. It's not just any mealtime though; it's an all-you-can-eat seafood extravaganza! These feathered foodies know how to make the most of their coastal location and take advantage of every opportunity presented by shoals of sardines and pilchards passing through Eastern Cape waters. With precision and grace, they dive headfirst into the water, disappearing beneath the surface only to emerge moments later with beaks full of tasty treats. It's truly a sight to behold! So next time you're feeling peckish or craving some underwater acrobatics, just remember these Cape Gannets off South Africa's coast who have mastered both art forms: catching dinner and putting on one heck of a show!
