Interesting fact

The Black-browed Albatross, featured on the 1997 Falkland Islands 50p coin, is a large seabird that can be found in the southern hemisphere, with a distinctive black brow and white feathers. Did you know that these birds can live up to 50 years and are known for their impressive mating dance, which involves ritualistic displays of calling, preening, and nest-building?
