Every day is albatross day in Dunedin NZ, but #WorldAlbatrossDay is the pinnacle of the social calendar for our resident royals. It's a good chance to raise awareness of the challenges they face and celebrate the efforts of those who fight for them.

Albatross back with bells on

The northern royal albatross quietly glided into Dunedin NZ last week, so the date has been set to ring the bells to celebrate their return - Tuesday 24th September at 1pm NZST. Don't have a bell but still keen to be involved wherever you are in the world? Play this video on full volume, featuring bell sounds from #dunedinnz churches and cathedrals.
