Cornell Albatross Still one of my favs: Honua & her sense of style! 💞 😋

Cornell Albatross The Albatross cam was such a pleasure to watch. I will miss those sweet faces, the dancing, the laughter, the drama, and the free therapy from observing those beautiful birds. Thank you for 5 special years and please come back soon. Albatross rock.

Cornell Albatross I do hope they’ll be back in the future! It has been so enriching, or maybe moving is a better word, to watch these magnificent birds these last years! I will miss them!

Thanks!

Cornell Albatross The story of Pilialoha (Rest In Peace, our Beloved) & Mahealani from Aunties w/ an infertile egg to the gift KAN gave them & us-a fertile egg of their own that became Kalama will forever have a special place in my heart. I pray I will hear of Kalama’s return one day

The Bird Cams provided millions of viewers from across the globe with a window into the intimate lives of wild birds in 2018. Watch the top moments from a year that brought us unforgettable perspectives, lasting memories, and new discoveries. youtu.be/jlesj7uCui4

Exciting news from Kauai! Kaloakulua, the chick from season 1, has returned to her natal breeding site. Watch KK take a stroll across the site in this video from KAN volunteer Jeanine Meyers! youtu.be/Xl7jMgmDgfg

You can see that Kaloakuloa’s geolocator (attached to the leg back) is intact, so with any luck researchers should be able to get an idea about where KK has been since we last saw her!

Here’s another clip of KK interacting with who other walkers! She is the bird in the middle. Video courtesy of KAN volunteer Jeanine Meyers. youtu.be/IN3ecTFbEQQ

She's back! Wisdom, a mōlī (Laysan albatross) and the world's oldest known, banded bird in the wild has returned to Midway Atoll. At least 69 years old, she and her mate are currently incubating an egg! Learn more: ow.ly/rcWi50CCasC 📸-Jon Brack/Friends of Midway Atoll NWR
