How many of you know this bird? I recently came to know about this from a Turkish series called ‘early bird’. This bird can be found in Antarctica, Australia, South Africa. It is basically a seabird that flies for the longest time and which wanders for years.
There are various kinds of albatross such as wandering albatross, snowy albatross, white-winged albatross, goonie albatross etc among which the largest is the wandering albatross which is my favourite.
When you compare this bird with human it can relate in many ways. Basically this authorizes privatism with its companion. Wandering albatross are extremely commited to its work and love life too.
There are zero percent divorce rate among these birds; pairs stay together until one of them dies; they are the most commited lovers of any bird. It is the most faithful and loyal creature. I have never heard such qualities in a bird and this is so amazing.
Human beings also love, travel, are consistent, dedicated, loyal and dominates. As these are also the qualities of an albatross it attracted to me quickly. When comes to supermom albatross it lays atleast 37 eggs in lifetime and takes a special care of the chicks. During these days, the male one wanders alongside for its daily bread and returns all the way to ensure that it's partner and chicks are protected with utmost care. They are just like human couple which makes us adore them.
After doing some facts research about this bird, I felt that it has all humanly qualities. And ofcourse negative qualities are there too but let's prefer these amazing features.
The oldest known albatrosses are still raising chicks with their partners in their 60's. They truly mate for life. Most bird species build relationship with their mate that may last only one breeding season which is common when comes to humans, but Albatross put our fickle hearts to shame and maintain their relationship until death do them apart - no matter what!
These birds not only fight to maintain their relationship with its mate but even during the search of it's beloved partner it's stays loyal to find one good mate for its rest of the life. The albatross symbolises ‘hope, freedom, strength, wanderlust’.
As I said about the series ‘early bird', it exhibits the qualities of this bird to some extent. There might be another bird which has all these qualities but for me this has taken its place forever in my heart!
