GANNET AT PRESTON DOCK.

On Tuesday lunch time I found a Gannet on Preston Dock,the bird looked exhausted and kept quiet in the middle of the dock until it was harassed by the LBBG'S and attacked by the cob mute swan.It was still present at 3.15 when I left.I posted a couple of images of the bird as it's a rare visitor to this area.I've also posted a couple of images of the female mute swan sat on her nest.

All rather sad Martin. Obviously a bird lost and exhausted, it was found dead in the dock today.

Nevertheless your images of the unfortunate Gannet and Mute Swan are excellent once again.
