More about Albatrosses:
Albatross are famous for their beautiful, boisterous courtship dance. Laysan Albatrosses are about 32 inches in length with a wingspan of up to 6.7 feet! On these long, thin wings, albatrosses rely mostly on wind and have adapted to using "dynamic soaring" rather than constant flapping, to cover enormous distances over the ocean with seemingly no effort, and often through storms. Albatrosses can live for more than 60 years and mate with one partner for life, choosing another partner if the first dies.
