Media notes
Two views of a swimming White-capped Albatross at sea. Recently the Shy Albatross species complex has been split into three species, this being called the White-capped Albatross from Tasmania and the Auckland Islands, New Zealand. Much debate remains about the recognition of the two subspecies, cauta from Tasmania and steadi from New Zealand. Elevation: 38 m. Date added to IBC: June 23, 2016.
