Guess who's back and breaking records? 🌟 At the incredible age of 74, Wisdom, the world's oldest known wild bird, has laid an egg in Hawaii! 🥚🌴
This legendary Laysan albatross returned to the Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge, nestled at the edge of the Hawaiian Archipelago, to continue her amazing journey. Wisdom has been gracing the skies and seas for over seven decades, and now, she might be welcoming her 60th chick! 🐥
Since 2006, Wisdom and her mate, Akeakamai, have been the ultimate power couple, returning annually to lay and hatch eggs. But even though Akeakamai hasn't been spotted for a few years, Wisdom isn't slowing down one bit! She was recently seen with a new male companion, proving that age is just a number. 💕
\"We are optimistic that the egg will hatch,\" shared Jonathan Plissner, supervisory wildlife biologist at the refuge. \"Every year, millions of seabirds return here to nest and raise their young.\" 🌊🐦
Wisdom's story is a soaring reminder that life's adventures never have to stop. Keep flying high, Wisdom! ✨
