Albatross nesting has begun for the year at Dunedin in New Zealand 😀

The pair on the live cam this year are RLK (red-lime-black), a 12 year old male, and GLG (green-lime-green), a 14 year old female, which successfully raised two chicks in 2021 and 2023. GLG laid their egg on the 11th of November and it usually takes about two and a half months for the egg to hatch. Watch:

And today the baby albatross, TF, fledged! He hatched way back on January 23 and fledged exactly 8 months later.

His mum, LGL, came back just afterwards and is now looking around wondering where he went.

It’s that time of the year when the Royal Albatross Live Cam is up and running again at Pukekura/Taiaroa Head (near Dunedin) in New Zealand!

There are two nests in view this year, with albatross pairs currently taking turns to incubate their eggs:

You can watch it all the way through September, since that’s how long it’ll take them to incubate, hatch, grow and fledge! 😀
