On this day’s walk I saw a hurt Northern Gannet. Evidently when it dove on a fish
it must have hit the water/wave wrong and broke a wing. As I was walking up
two couples were running out into the water to try and save it. The waves were
pushing it around and it kept going under water.

A Northern Gannet in flight.
|
|
The waves kept pushing him to shore.
He tried to snap at the fellow trying to pick him up.
|
|
The waves have him almost up on the beach.
|
|
He clamped down on the towel and they dragged him up on the beach.
|
|
They had to work to get the towel away from him.
|
|
They wrapped a hair band around his beak to keep him from snapping.
|
|
|
After calling animal protective they were told where to take it.
