The Papo Albatross #56038 measures: 5.4" W (wingspan) x 1.7" L (body).
The light orange feet and bill provide a pleasing contrast against the predominantly white, black, and grey body, mirroring the vibrant hues found in their natural habitat. The bright orange bulb at the end of the nose is a nice, small feature, adding an extra level of authenticity to the model.
The figure rests comfortably on its feet and tail feathers, allowing for easy display without any fear of tipping over.
One of the most striking features of the albatross is its wingspan, which can reach up to 11 feet, making it one of the largest wingspans of any bird species. This impressive wingspan allows the albatross to glide for hours without flapping its wings, conserving energy as it soars above the waves.
Albatrosses have a distinctive flying style, effortlessly riding the wind currents and gracefully skimming the ocean's surface. They are highly adapted for life at sea, with long, slender wings that enable them to take advantage of strong winds for efficient flight.
These seabirds are known for their remarkable navigational abilities, capable of locating their breeding grounds and feeding areas across vast distances. Some species of albatross have been recorded traveling thousands of miles during a single foraging trip, relying on their keen sense of smell and an innate understanding of oceanic currents.
