Albatross!
19 Dec 2006 09:30 pmI just shot my first Albatross, a black browed one to be precise. It was a bit far away so the picture isn't very clear but I'm told there will be loads more when we're crossing the Drake Passage.
I also shot loads of (Giant Southern) Petrels (who are named after St. Peter as they walk/run over the water when they take off) and they came a lot closer to the ship as they sailed effortlessly in the winds coming off the stern of the ship.
But yay, Albatross! *smug*
