Birds: Red-tail Tropicbird
Red-tail tropic birds are the prettiest bird on Laysan! They are white, with bright red bills and striking black markings. They have 2 really long, red tail feathers, that are about 1.5 ft in length. During breeding season, they have a rosy-pink hue to their white feathers.
