Photo: Gannet Wings Cape Kidnappers NZ

An Australasian Gannet spreads its wings in preparation for take off from the Cape Kidnappers gannet colony in the Hawke Bay region of New Zealand.

Situated on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand, Cape Kidnappers has been identified as an important bird area and is home to a colony of Australasian Gannets.

The average wing span of these large sea birds is massive 1.8 metres (adult), an impressive sight to see when their wings are spread.
