Waved Albatross
Waved Albatross, 85–93 cm, wingspan 220–250 cm, breeds almost exclusively on Española Island in the Galápagos. Named for the wavy-barred pattern on the neck. Piscivore and squid feeder; forages in the productive Humboldt Current. Critically Endangered; fewer than 35,000 individuals; highly vulnerable to El Niño.
