Handling albatrosses is quite a handful, or more like two handfuls and two legfuls. This black-footed albatross is still mostly inside the pillowcase that we use to weigh him. If you look closely at the yellow band on its leg, you might be able to see an archival tag. These tags measure location once a day and wet/dry states, from which can determine foraging events.
