The Gannet and Cormorant is an episode of ⁨@birdznerdz⁩ where we get to meet two of Britain’s most dramatic seabirds — the gannet that hits the water at 100 kilometres per hour with a reinforced skull and air sacs under its skin, and the cormorant that deliberately keeps its feathers unwaterproofed to make diving easier.
