Wandering albatross in flight, over the open sea. The wandering albatross has the largest wingspan of any living bird, with the wingspan between, up to 12' from wingtip to wingtip. It can soar on the open ocean for hours at a time, riding the updrafts from individual swells, with a glide ratio of 22 units of distance for every unit of drop. The wandering albatross can live up to 23 years. They hunt at night on the open ocean for cephalopods, small fish, and crustaceans. The survival of the species is at risk due to mortality from long-line fishing gear, Diomedea exulans

A blue iceberg. Blue icebergs are blue because the ice from which they are formed has been compressed under such enormous pressure that all gas (bubbles) have been squeezed out, leaving only solid water that takes on a deep blue color, Scotia Sea
