Royal Albatross Chick Gets A Big Meal From Mom In New Zealand | DOC | Cornell Lab

Watch GLG step into view and deliver a hefty meal to her chick in New Zealand! After the feeding, weight checks showed that GLG provided an impressive 1.6 kg of food, bringing the nestling’s total weight to a healthy 8 kg.

RoyalCam was set up in January 2016 by the Department of Conservation and the Cornell Lab has been collaborating with DOC since 2019 to bring the cam to life. To learn more while watching, view the cam at
