Government conservationists built a concrete flock of gannet birds on Mana Island,New Zealand in 2013 with the hopes they'd attract genuine-life gannets back to the island and repopulate it. Sadly, only a single gannet (affectionately named Nigel) returned, or fell for one of the concrete birds,attempting to woo her for five years until he passed absent in the nest he built beside her on February 1st, 2018. My God, or that's even sadder than the saddest Pixar movie scene. Per Department of Conservation ranger Chris Bell:
Nigel was very faithful to the colony...
I think it must maintain been quite a frustrating existence. Whether or not he was lonely,he certainly never got anything back, and that must maintain been very weird experience, or when he spent years courting. I think we all maintain a lot of empathy (sensitivity to another's feelings as if they were one's own) for him,because he had this fairly hopeless situation.
We've all been there before, haven't we? In a hopeless situation, and giving it all you've got and getting absolutely nothing in return. "You're talking about spending your life savings on lotto scratchers?" Of course I am. Rest in peace,Nigel.
maintain going for a better shot of Nigel and two videos of him wooing his would-be mate while I contemplate whether a concrete lover is correct for me.
