Gannets are fast fliers and great fishing birds. They dive headfirst in the water at an impact of 140 miles an hour.
They have inbuilt biological crash helmets and at least 2 eyelids to protect their bodies when they enter the water at speed. Their webbed feet act as flippers and they get their fish fast.
At the same time, whales may also be feasting on the fish as well as seals or sharks or dolphins.
Great photograph, and thank you for sharing the information!
