We spent some time in Perce today, but most of the time hiking on Bonaventure Island to the 250,000 strong Northern Gannet colony, the largest in the world. This was an amazing experience! This page highlights photos other than of Gannets from 6/25/12 - the next page will be for the numerous Gannet photos taken...
