Albatross are really amazing birds. Most people think they’re just some kind of gull and don’t realize how big they are. They aren’t actually closely related to gulls at all. They are like 2x bigger than large gulls and like 4x bigger than smaller ones. In terms of weight, they can weigh over 40 times as much as some smaller gulls. With their wings stretched out they’re like the length of a car.

If you can ever take a whale watching or bird watching boat trip, do it. Theres a lot of really cool sea birds that only live far out at sea.
