  • Sharing with you our family trip to the most accessible gannet colony in New Zealand - the Muriwai Gannet Colony. We watched in awe these adorable gannets as they come and go in the colony, controlling their landings with ease in their precisely arranged nests as they deliver food to their waiting chicks or gugas. We were absolutely delighted to see these seabirds ascend, preen, land, kiss and squawk in this picturesque location. It’s free to visit the Muriwai gannet colony but be mindful that feeding the birds and flying drone over them are not permitted. If planning to visit the colony, come between August and March when about 1,200 pairs of gannets nest and breed from mid-September to mid-December.

    I keep returning to this Gannet colony vid. What a beautiful nested life they have

      Indeed, their place here in NZ is spectacular, but the journey back to Australia poses significant risks given the expansive stretch of water they must traverse. Thank you sincerely for your enthusiasm to rewatch this video. Best regards!

      Excited for you to see these gannets in person. The smell was tolerable during our visit maybe because of the strong blowing wind. Surely, you will enjoy watching them. Warmest regards.

    Maybe this time
    Maybe it's when there are no Muriwai Gannet crowds. So peacefully, the yellow-headed birds are flying in peace. It's stuck in my video. Let's compare it.

    • @PabloVillasenorPresents
      @PabloVillasenorPresents  Рік тому

      Yes, there are times when there's a lot of visitors in the area. We're lucky when we visited these gannets that only few people were around. Best regards!
