Join us for our monthly exploration of the world of birds, birding, and ornithology.
Tubenoses (albatrosses, petrels, shearwaters, and their allies) are extraordinary birds, spending the vast majority of their lives at sea. They return to land only to breed. If you have never taken a pelagic trip, it is likely that you have never seen a tubenose. Take some Dramamine and don your foul weather gear for an exploration of these incredible birds.
