Wisdom has nested at Midway Atoll since 1956. She is the oldest-known wild bird, and the happy new Laysan Albatross is now proud mama to a very fluffy, very cute chick. Wisdom and her mate will take shifts feeding and nesting with their new baby. This is believed to be her 35th (!) chick.
Trust me, you'd be grumpy too if you were having a bad feather day like that!
