In the waters of Antarctica, two male albatrosses became a gay couple after being rejected by a female.
A mature albatross performed an elaborate ritual of courting a female. But then a few more candidates came to her, and she just flew away. Then another male joined the lone albatross, starting to show signs of attention, to which he received a mutual response. And now this couple can spend the rest of their lives together.
Gay unions between albatrosses are becoming more common, zoologists say, as there are now three times as many males as females.
