7/16 Some info about the 11 kg chick from a few days ago. Sharyn ~ He was likely fed at least once that very morning. This chick's nest is far down the hill on Progeny Track, his parents are OYL & BLG, and this is their 4th chick. Cheers! Video: youtube.com/shorts/G7S560M…

7/17 Yesterday's puzzle? RLK KA85 arrived to feed SST chick and then there was a quick switcharoo with GLG. It was so seamless you could have missed it. Chick was also fed earlier in the morning. AllAboutBirds.org/Albatross

7/28 Video Highlight: The #RoyalCam nestling is getting older and growing a new set of feathers requires constant attention and preening. But when you're growing into a 3m/9-foot set of wings, sometimes it can be hard to reach the spots you want to reach! youtube.com/watch?v=T71SG1…

7/29 If you missed RLK's visit: Eating is an important part of getting closer to fledging for the young Royal Albatross chick on the #RoyalCam. This highlight captures dad arriving after foraging across the Pacific Ocean and providing a meal to the chick. youtube.com/watch?v=UVy6NP…
