Laysan Albatross
Phoebastria immutabilis
Like all albatross, these birds are capable of long distance travel. Most of these birds breed on islands in the Hawaiian archipelago, but in recent years they’ve colonized islands off the coast of Baja California. We found them nesting in the islands of the Revillagigedos of Mexico.
