Title: Northern Gannet at Fort De Soto’s north beach

Location: Fort De Soto County Park, Pinellas County, Florida

Date: 4/10/2009

This gannet was on the beach and was not doing well. We called the park rangers and stayed with the bird until they picked it up to have it taken the the local seabird rescue group. Unfortunately, it was too late and the bird died later that day.
