The Northern Royal Albatross chick takes advantage of the strong winds blowing through Pukekura/Taiaroa Head to build up its flight muscles with some resistance training and practice short bursts of hovering on August 3. Watch LIVE at AllABoutBirds.org/Albatross

At 193 days old, the chick will continue strengthening its wings over the coming weeks before taking its first flight from the headland in mid-September.
