Listen now 🔊 Edin Whitehead @edinatw is researching the lives of the spectacular seabirds that call the Hauraki Gulf home.

Where do they go, how are they faring & what can they tell us about our moana? 🌊

There are 8 posters in the series, and they follow our 2019 report Threats to Seabirds in Northern Aotearoa New Zealand. We worked with @giselledraws and Stephanie Tibble to make these posters accessible for tamariki, and raise awareness of the many threats to our manu moana!

How light impacts on seabirds and what we can do to help... colour, wavelength, direction, shape? #birdsnz2021

[Biz Bell @blackpetrelbiz]

Exciting opportunities to collaborate with penguin research towards a strategic direction for conservation... #birdsnz2021

World Albatross Day: How NZ became the world's albatross capital https://t.co/bhJmwpbygK

#WorldAlbatrossDay Here's an Antipodean albatross cruising towards the Antipodes islands. These guys are seriously threatened by fisheries bycatch - not only in New Zealand waters but across the Pacific. See some neat albatross tracking here: https://t.co/M65cw2JZPI #WAD2020

#WorldAlbatrossDay A glorious gamming group of Southern Royal albatross on Campbell island. They practice their 'moves' for a few years in these groups before pairing off and settling down with a mate. #WAD2020

[Edin Whitehead @edinatw]

#WorldAlbatrossDay A very fluffy but near-to-fledging Southern Royal albatross. These birds breed once every 2 years because the whole process of raising their chick takes 9 months! The adults take a year off before returning to breed at the same nest. #WAD2020

It's #WorldAlbatrossDay! Our favourite day of the year.
Did you know the most commonly seen albatross from land in south-eastern Australia is the Shy #Albatross? #Seabirds #Birding #birds #birdphotography
