EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a fishy feast! This Cape Gannet knows how to make a splash while dining in style. With its sleek feathers and sharp beak, this adult gannet takes the plunge underwater, diving into a 'baitball' school of small bait fish off the coast of Port St. Johns in South Africa's Eastern Cape. Caught on camera by FLPA/Colin Marshall, this incredible shot captures the sheer agility and precision of these skilled hunters as they navigate through the depths of the Indian Ocean. The gannet's intense focus is evident as it zeroes in on its prey, ready to satisfy its appetite with a mouthful of sardines or pilchards. Known for their impressive fishing skills, these seabirds are true masters of their domain. They rely on teamwork and coordination within groups to corral shoals of baitfish into tight balls near the water's surface before making their dramatic dives. The Wild Coast provides an ideal backdrop for this display of nature at its finest. With its rugged beauty and abundant marine life, it's no wonder that both humans and animals alike are drawn to this coastal paradise. So next time you're feeling hungry, take inspiration from our feathered friend here – dive right in like a Cape Gannet and enjoy your own 'baitball' feast!
