Living Together - gannets

Discovery

Available for over a year

Gannet colonies bear similarities to human congregations, so can they teach us anything? At a barren island just off the coast of Scotland is a huge gannet colony. Every year the birds arrive to turn the island into a 'bird city' in order to breed; and do so successfully with strict social rules, every year.
