In May, northern gannets transport seaweed to their nests to stabilize them and protect them from the harsh coastal conditions. The seaweed serves as building material, anchoring the nests, which are often located on rocky cliffs. Additionally, the material provides protection from wind and rain, offering better insulation. Thanks to its natural antimicrobial properties, seaweed can also keep parasites away, improving the nest's hygiene. In this way, the gannets create a safe and protected environment for their eggs and chicks. This photo was taken at the gannet colony on Heligoland.
