Wisdom: Oldest Living Banded Bird Returns to Wildlife Refuge

[knocker]

This 64-year-old bird returned to Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge on November 19, 2015, after a year at sea. A few days later, she was observed with her mate. Wisdom departed soon after mating but refuge workers expect her back any day to lay her egg.
