The Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) is a large seabird that breeds on 12 circumpolar islands in the southern oceans. The largest colony, with over 400,000, is on the Falkland Islands. Despite having a total population of over 1.2 million, ongoing declines in their numbers have led to their categorization as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List. They do not breed until they are 10 years old, but beginning in their third and fourth year they return to their breeding grounds to practice their elaborate courtship rituals. They raise only one chick at a time.

A single Wandering Albatross (Diomedea exulans), wings spread, soaring over the Pacific Ocean off southern Chile. The Wandering Albatross ‘species’ is currently split into several ‘types’ or ‘races’ that some biologists regard as separate species or subspecies. This bird seems to be a member of the “New Zealand” type, although it is not the only ‘type’ that breeds around those islands.

The Wandering Albatross (Diomedea exulans) is famed for having the largest wingspan of any living bird, reaching up to 3.5 meters (11.5 feet). It features mostly white plumage with black-tipped wings and a pinkish bill. These birds are expert gliders, capable of traveling thousands of miles across the Southern Ocean without flapping their wings. They breed on sub-Antarctic islands. The Wandering Albatross faces threats from longline fishing, plastic pollution, and climate change, making conservation efforts vital. This iconic bird epitomizes the vastness and freedom of the open ocean.
