ποΈ Today is #WorldSeabirdDay, marking the 1844 extinction of the Great Auk. Seabirds still face major threatsβbycatch, pollution & habitat loss.
Just weeks ago, #WorldAlbatrossDay reminded us: thousands of seabirds die yearly in fisheries. Letβs act. ππ¦ #ACAP
A white sea bird with long black wings and a heavy brow. It is gliding near the surface of the ocean and the white is reflected there.

Darn, I missed #WorldAlbatrossDay
Here are a few photos of Black-browed Albatrosses anyway. This was on a particularly calm day on the Southern Ocean near Cape Horn. February 2019
Earlier this week was #WorldAlbatrossDay so I thought it appropriate that I had an albatros flying over my house today. A Czech-made Aero L-39 Albatros jet. Painted with "Dark Star" like the fictional jet in #TopGunMaverick π #Hungary #PlaneSpotting

Thank you for sharing! I had no idea we even had #WorldAlbatrossDay I love those birds. Don't know if I have ever seen one, but I wrote a wonderful six-part essay dedicated to their journeys and what they may think about. Perhaps you will enjoy it. rembisreport.beehiiv.com/p/the-rembis...
Bullerβs Albatross. Sydney, Australia.
A fun fact about Buller's Albatross is that they are endemic breeders to New Zealand, breeding on only a few islands off the coast of New Zealand.

A last minute entry for #WorldAlbatrossDay. I spent 4 years working with albatross on Tristan da Cunha and Gough Island. Fantastic animals.
