アルバトロス（アホウドリ）の飛行（ニュージーランド）Royal Albatross flying in Dunedin, New Zealand
離れ小島ではなく、町と陸続きの場所にあるコロニーは、観光客でも訪問できます。風が強い日に飛ぶ姿が見えました。

"The flight of the Wandering Albatross, which can have a wingspan of up to 3 meters and weigh 9 kilograms, is truly spectacular. They invest almost a year in raising a single chick, so they breed every other year. Known to live up to 40 years, they are also recognized for their monogamous mating.
Colonies of these birds can be visited by tourists, as they are located in places connected to towns, not remote islands. I witnessed their flight on a windy day.
Photographed in March 2023."
