Point of Tranquility
The Hawaiian Archipelago
Aqua-azure waters are edged by pristine beaches and heavens of whispering clouds. A single Laysan Albatross gracefully soars on trade winds.
The courtship dance of the albatross will warm your heart while putting a grin on your face. The many steps of the albatross dance include fencing with their bills, shaking their heads from side to side while loudly snapping their beaks and tucking their heads under a lifted wing. All the while these motions are mixed with a lot of whinnies and squeals along with bowing and nodding in symmetry. These characters are a delight as they stand on their tip toes with beaks up-cast while groaning in the final climax of their dance.
Albatross usually first mate between 7 to 9 years old. When they pick a mate it will be for life. They are known as the most massive birds in the North Pacific with a body length of 32” and a wing span of 80”. On average, they live for 12 years though one was known to reach 43 years old.
