The albatross(信天翁) is not a kind of bird. It is a collection of
bird families. Some of them have short tails, some have black
feet and some others have large bodies and wings.There are at
least 12 different kinds of albatrosses, and the largest kind has
about 3.7-metre-long wings.
Like other seabirds, albatrosses drink sea water. They mainly
live on squids(鱿鱼) and fish, and they sometimes follow ships

to eat rubbish. Besides, they may also dive(俯冲) into water to
catch their “seafood”. One kind of albatrosses can dive as
deep as 12.5 metres. Albatrosses spend most of their lives fly-
ing and can reach faraway places. They are also able to stay in
air in windy weather for hours. Some large albatrosses have
trouble keeping in air when there is no wind, and then they
would rest on the water.
Most albatrosses live in the Antarctic and the North Pacific,
and you can find them in Shandong, Taiwan and other seaside

provinces of China. They give birth to babies by laying eggs.
The mother albatross lays one egg every two years. The egg is
taken care of by the parents in turn.
Albatrosses are popular seabirds but their population is small.
They are the first class protected birds in China. We should try
our best to protect them.
