While we were in Dunedin, we took a short drive to the Otago Peninsula. It is a mostly pastoral landscape with bits of tussock grass scattered about. At the very tip of the peninsula is the Royal Albatross Colony. It is a rare location for Albatross because most breed on very small, remote islands and spend 90% of their lives out at sea. Their wing spans stretch to 3 meters! We were lucky enough to see a few flying around, but it was too difficult to get a clear picture of one.
