EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Northern Gannets: A Dance of Love and Affection - Fencing, the Intimate Pair Bonding Display" This photograph showcases the unique and intriguing pair bonding display of Northern Gannets, also known as Morus bassanus or Sula bassana, during their reunions. Captured by renowned wildlife photographer John Cancalosi, this image is a testament to the remarkable behavior of these large, striking seabirds native to the North Atlantic and North Pacific Oceans. The Northern Gannet is easily recognizable with its six-foot wingspan, long black-tipped wings, and pointed tail. Known for their high-diving abilities, these birds are renowned for their sudden, headlong plunges into the water in pursuit of prey. However, this image reveals a different side of their nature – a tender and affectionate one. In this photograph, a pair of Northern Gannets engage in a mating display called "fencing." This behavior is performed when two individuals come together after being separated, and it serves to reaffirm their bond and strengthen their connection. The birds touch beaks, locking them together in a dance-like motion, while their wings create a rhythmic, fencing-like motion, adding to the display's elegance and allure. This image is a reminder of the complex and fascinating behaviors that exist within the natural world. It is essential to appreciate and protect these magnificent creatures and their habitats.
