The world's oldest known bird has just laid a new egg. Wisdom the Laysan albatross, or mōlī, is now at least 74 years old — and eternally young, apparently. First banded by scientists in 1956, she's just laid an egg on Midway Atoll in the Pacific Ocean — to become, we hope, the most recent of more than 30 chicks Wisdom has raised to fledglings. Not only has she survived a deadly 2011 tsunami, predators, and ocean pollution, but the queen 👑 of seabirds is believed to have flown more than 3 million miles in her long lifetime. Now that's an amazing bird. ✨ #albatross #midwayatoll #laysanalbatross #wildlifeconservation #seabird
