You are very welcome. (Check out my photo page, I put up a picture of my dogs.)

Wonderful! I won't forget. This Project is great, we can teach other so easily. Thank you.

Another thing to remember is that neither Albatross or Boobies fly in group formation. So really big birds flying in formation are usually cranes, or pelicans.

Hi! Thank you! I saw lots of them http://www.networkedorganisms.com/spotting/2238003 but I didn't know they could fly so high.
