Northern Royal Albatross (Toroa)

Taiaroa Head, Otago Peninsula

Taiaroa Head on the Otago Peninsula is the only place in the world where Albatross breed close to a city.
Standing at the edge of the sea cliffs watching these magnificent birds glide past is a privilege.
Estimates of 40,000 + killed each year by long-line trawlers that are now plundering the fish stocks in the Southern Oceans.
