Albatross are sometimes called Goonies, or Gooney Birds. What a silly-sounding name! Perhaps they have that funny name because they sometimes make a funny landing, or perhaps it's because their faces look funny.
At this time of year, when the albatross are losing their down and getting their regular feathers, they really look funny. It looks as if they have silly hair cuts. Which one do you think is the funniest?! (If you like these pictures, definitely visit the FOAM post entitled "Goofy Gooney Hair Cuts -- Hana Hou!")

When I was in 4th grade we dissected a bolus. It was really gross. There was squid beak, fishing net, sand and string.
