Albatross-cam

Seabird enthusiasts are sure to find an article published in October 2009 very interesting.

The complete article on the web is entitled: "From the Eye of the Albatross: a Bird-Borne Camera Shows an Association between Albatrosses and a Killer Whale in the Southern Ocean.

Figure 1 shows several photographs from the camera attached to this Black-browed Albatross showing it following behind other albatrosses in flight, an encounter with a Killer Whale, approaching a fishing vessel, and flying near an iceberg.

Neat stuff!
