the birds

Question #1
Can you believe there
is a bird with a wingspan
4m
of 4m?
Here's a picture that you can
feel Albatross.
Background 1
flying techniques, "Dynamic Soaring"
1. farthest and fastest birds among birds~
2. use own energy (least)utilizing
updraft in the air
- power ↓ lower
kinetic energy <-> potential energy
(speed) (height)
LIFE CYCLE
1. Hatch from an egg
- need 80 days to hatch
- parents take turns incubating the egg
2. Raised by parent birds
- raised by both the
mother and father birds
3. Leave the nest
- takes nine month for the chick to
be old enough to fly and be
independent.
4. Becomes an adult
- Couples won’t pair up until
both partners are at least
10 years old.
- When they reach
adulthood, albatrosses
begin to search for a mate.
5. Pair up
-> MATING DANCE
- mate each other at
November
5-2. (specific) Pairing and mating
mouth-gaping
behavior to share feelings
how lifecycle cycle circulates : how the young
of mated adult
could be able to breed
1. Preparation for territory to breed
in the nesting colonies
protect around nest and secure resources/
2. Egg laying and protecting the eggs
one egg
grass, soil, pebbles
divide up chores for the egg
(make nest togher, take turns)
4. Parent’s nurture
exhausting
(males-going out-bring-go)
(females- keep chick warm)
5. Maturation and independence
developed -> learn to use wing +
take its first flight
in a while parents homeland
other island to breed (같이)
6. Cycle of albatross
flies above the sea not having a rest can float on water return
Background 2
Golf- albatross
In golf, the term "albatross" refers to a score of three strokes under par on a
single hole. Achieving an albatross is extremely rare and considered a
significant accomplishment in the sport.
Due to its rarity, an albatross is celebrated as a remarkable feat in golf, often
met with astonishment and excitement from players and spectators alike.
Albatross, which is registered in the guinness book
According to Guinness World Records,
it boasts a huge speed of 127 km/h.
It can also glide for as long as six days
once it is determined to fly
Protected species
In the past, there was no threat from breeding in isolated ecosystems without
predators but mice steal and eat eggs, as well as babies and mothers holding
eggs.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
THEME: LIFE CYCLE OF ALBATROSS
- Bird that flies more than 800km at once without landing
- Beautiful dance
- But threatened with its survival
THANK YOU
