The biggest colony of masked boobies in the world is to be found in the middle of the Pacific, on Clipperton atoll. It numbers almost 120 000 birds! A team of ornithologists is trying to evaluate the state of the Pacific’s waters by watching what these birds eat; the fish that they bring back from the furthest ocean.
