Albatrosses and the closley related Giant Petrels are symbols of the Southern oceans around Antarctica. The great Albatrosses (Wandering Albatross and Royal Albatross) mate for life and have therefore developed displays with gestures, dances and preening. The Giant Petrels (Northern and Southern Giant Petrel) are often called the "vultures of the seas". Together with Southern Skuas they take care of dead animals in the big seal colonies of their region. Sometimes they take also young penguin chicks. Nearly all species of Albatrosses and both Giant Petrels are endangered due to the overfishing of the oceans and longline fishing methods. Therefore the Gallery is dedicated to the Save the Albatross The Race is on project.
Look through this gallery of birds, which not many people can watch in the wild. If you are interested to photograph Albatrosses in the wild, have a closer look at my Falkland Island Workshop!
