The Laysan Albatross

We are mislabeled as sea birds and should be called big birds, like that yellow one but we're not yellow. We never land on land for a year or longer, and we been told that we have known God since he was a little boy. The unfeathered say that for a very long time we're like many fishes in the sea, but now we are like whales. The few of us left, live in the north atolls of Hawaii. There's no other place in the world except for oceans, seas, bays ... forget what I said.
