Bonaventure Island

In June 2015 I spent three days photographing gannets and other birds on Bonaventure Island near Perce, Quebec, Canada. I had never seen a larger concentration of birds, and the gannets are the most interesting birds I have ever observed. Long lenses were not necessary for this shoot because of the close distance to the birds. The gannets were so busy tending there nests, they largely ignored humans. This was a very rewarding trip.
