The royal albatross 2

These guys breed for life. This mum or dad is sitting on a chick, their partner goes to get food and then they swap places. The chick eats so much, that mum and dad lose quite a lot in the process. Once the chicks leave the nest, they don't return for 3-4 years, when they are ready to mate.
such a wonderful nature shot, some birds don't have an easy life.

They are amazing birds. It is crazy to think that while they are away for the three to four years, they don't touch land until they get back ...
