Description
Albatrosses are one of the most marine of all birds, traversing the oceans of the southern hemisphere, and only returning to land to breed. They belong to the family of ‘tube-noses’, related to petrels, shearwaters and fulmars . The black-browed albatross is a large bird, although not amongst the largest members of their family, and are predominantly white beneath, with a dark border around the underwing. Above, the upperwing is dark grey and the bird appears as a black and white cross at a distance.Albatross are known to be amongst some of the longest-lived birds and the black-browed can continue to breed up to an age of 35 years.
