While male albatrosses are more likely to return to their original nesting grounds, female are more adventurous. They tend to establish new colonies. This leads to a reduced amount of males in these new colonies, which then leads to lesbian couples. While some of them only last a few years until they find a male to reproduce, others stay a lifetime together. One lesbian couple that have been together for 17 years, raised eight orphan chicks and became grandparents to three more. These birds indulge in all the same lovey-dovey preening that heterosexual albatross couples engage in.
