Wisdom (center right), a Laysan albatross first banded in 1956, stands with her new partner as they admire their recently laid egg at Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge in late November.

It started in the Eisenhower era: Every year, Wisdom, a Layan albatross, has returned to her nesting grounds on the Midway Atoll in the Pacific Ocean.
