Watch Royal Albatross chick "Manaaki" and his neighbors open their giant wings to catch the breeze blowing over the headland on New Zealand's Otago Peninsula. Within weeks, these young albatross will use their wings to fledge out to sea over the Pacific Ocean, where they will spend several years before returning to their breeding territory to find a mate.
