Occurred on April 6, 2026 / Kīlauea National Wildlife Refuge, Kauai, Hawai'i, USA

"This is a video showcasing the complex social dynamics shared between Mōlī (Laysan Albatross, Phoebastria immutabilis) mates on Kauai, Hawaii at the Kīlauea National Wildlife Refuge. These birds mate for life, returning to land once a year to raise a chick together, both parents play an active role in raising the chick. They are highly communicative in ways we can relate, as evident by them telling each other goodbye before taking flight. Similar to us kissing our partner goodbye before we leave the house in the morning for work." Credit: Waruipede
