Gannet in flight at Muriwai

Posted by Aaron Schmidt (Auckland, New Zealand) on 23 August 2006 in Animal & Insect.

Muriwai beach is home to a large breeding ground for gannets. With a 1.8m wingspan these beautiful birds love to soar and they come to Muriwai because of the excellent wind conditions over the cliffs.
