Each March, mating pairs reunite after months at sea and perform a charming avian dance — bill tapping, sky-pointin

The waved albatross is the largest bird in the Galápagos Islands with a wingspan of up to two and a half meters. They get their name from the wave-like pattern on the adults’ wings. Like all albatrosses, these birds are exceptional gliders and spend most of their lives above the open ocean. 🎥 by Andres Cruz | Lindblad Expeditions
