Save the albatross campaign launched
The blog, Under Clear Skies has found out via the Independent Newspaper that there is a campaign to save the Albatross.
As someone who only knows of the Albatross previously as a golf score I had no idea that they were under threat.
Thankfully Kunal Dutta’s article on them has highlighted this to me, and looking at pictures of them, they’re magnificent birds.
Lets hope that the project in South Africa concerning warding these beautiful birds away from fishermen’s hooks work so that we don’t lose them too.
To find out more about this project, check out the Save The Albatross website.

This article bought back fond memories of studying Samuel L. Coleridge’s epic poem ‘Rime of the ancient mariner’ for A-Level English Literature. This tale focussed on the curse of a sea captain and his crew after he killed an inocent Albatross. It’s my favourite poem and I would definately reccomend it for lover of classic literature.

Better intro for the rewrite – but I want some reaction, context etc. Don’t just repeat, dig!
