Affectionately known as “Albert”, the Black-browed Albatross returned to the RSPB reserve at Bempton Cliffs on the Yorkshire coast, in early April. Albatrosses are renowned for their long distance travelling, and this particular species is some 10,000 miles off course. The breeding grounds are located in the southern oceans, around the Falkland Islands. Albert has now revisited Bempton three years in succession, giving many people the unique opportunity of seeing an Albatrosses in British waters.
Lets hope Albert returns in 2023, fingers crossed.
