Albatros with its wingspan, which can reach up to 3,5 meter, is one of the largest birds in the world. The body is about 120 centimeters long. The maximum weight is 9 kg. A massive beak adapted to fish catches albatross among the king of the sky. They live in monogamous pairs that rarely break down, for example, if they can not make young seasons for several seasons. Nesting is energetically demanding for birds, smaller species nestle one or two years, more than two or three. The bigger the bigger the egg and the longer the eggs are, the longer it takes for the young to eat, from the egg to the plumage it takes for almost a year.
Albaros Royal - Live
28.3. - 15:12 The female feeds the young female an octopus, but it is still too big for her.
16.3. so we weighed the girl at 9,14 and the mother came to check 9,19, there was also feeding. As could be seen, the weighing also took place on the surrounding nests (angry parents flew over the water).
The latest news! Royalcam Cub is a GIRL !!
March 9, 2021 Updated by Sharyn Broni
DNA analysis of the blood vessels left after hatching the eggshell was returned to us from a laboratory at the University of Otago. Today, the cat has a royal cam of 44 days, a female and has two neighbors, one next door and one down on the shore.
Only one of the 33 chickens had no result because the shell was too damaged for the laboratory to obtain enough material. There are 17 females and 15 males this season. We will be able to identify young people of unknown sex in May, as soon as we know the weight and a more precise temperament.
The Royalcam bun was weighed this morning, although we did not see it live and weighed 3.5 kg. This is a healthy weight for a female at this age. It is important for our efforts to preserve the Northern Royal Albatross in Taiaroa Head that any low-weight chickens are supplemented. The salmon is donated to us by the New Zealand company King Salmon Ltd.
The Royalcam Nest area has been busy in the last few days, but there is much less wind today.

7.3. The 8,58 squirrel enjoys solitude, I hope the parents are somewhere nearby even though the camera can't see them. When I returned the record to 6.3. 23,21 since then he is there alone
4.3. Interesting:
Female Wisdom (Wisdom) is raising another cub at the age of 70

Date and time on camera 19.2.- 08:08:40 Close up shot of a female, a walkie-talkie can be seen between the wings. The cub is gorgeous!
18.2. 7,49 squirrels monkey after mom, also fluffs "feathers"
12.2. 2021 16:52:30 Passed around the nest heron LGL is upset 😀
12.2.- 13:19:30 Checking the cub and probably attaching the radio to the female LGL 16:12 The male is coming, they are nice to welcome the female
11.2. - 11:16 Scientists from Parker Conservation are installing a radio for the male LGK !!
February 11, 2021 LGK received a GPS tracking device this morning!
This year, a broader study of the Northern Royal Albatross is underway. Hitchhikers are now deployed on the north side of Chathams, where 99% of the world's population breeds this species.
We are very lucky to have two devices available for LGK and LGL monitoring. LGK will receive its 20 g device today and LGL will receive its own when it returns to the nest. file: /// C: /Users/42073/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.pngfile: /// C: /Users/42073/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image004.png
The devices are extremely light compared to the weight of the bird and attached to the back feathers. This feather will shed for a year and the appliance will fall. The device is solar powered and will send data remotely until molting.
Experienced Parker Conservation scientists deploy the equipment while Jim takes care of the cub.
We will soon have more information and publish the highlighted clip deployment of the device in the clip.
7.2.2021 The cub is growing nicely, at the last weighing it weighed 1.2 kg !!
9:53:15 a cargo ship is passing by
4.2. 9,05 again they have something to talk about and feed. It's interesting that people don't mind the albatross at all, they don't even mind the cub, they just knock a little with their beak, rather it seemed to me that the guys would push them to leave.
1.2. 2021 Our royalcam star weighed 630 g yesterday !!!! Due to the good weight, it will now weigh only once a day!
7,44 is beautiful, 10,12 it's a woman still knocking her beak
