How does albatross taste

When the dish was cooked we revelled in unwonted gluttony - the delicious, white, well-flavoured and rich flesh was rendered even more piquant by the addition of the hoosh We even ate the bones, as they were soft and juicy". Contrary to expectation, they [Atlantic Yellow-nosed Albatross chicks] have no fishy taste but their fat is very oily. They had been fried in this and I held the bones in my fingers until it had all dripped away before I gnawed them in the accustomed manner.

The following day boil it up and throw away the water. Brown some onions and braise the cut-up meat in the usual way. Add some chillies and put some curry with it. Don't believe the people who say that a malmok tastes fishy. These people don't know how to cook. It is not right to blame the bird if you don't know how to cook. We old fisher-man know a lot about good cooking; oh yes, we do.

The young Gony [Tristan Albatross D. Avery, Graham Results of beach patrols conducted in Cormorant 6: Crawford, Allan B. Biped — An albatrosses legs are strong and it can walk well on land. Remind you of anything? One Night Standers — These huge birds never stick to an annual migration and they disperse widely after breeding. It could be said that some humans might end up doing that too….

Diet — Albatrosses predominantly eat fish, crustaceans and offal. But at least I can say that they are edible for us. Also, some different species have different appetites. For example; the Black-footed Albatross mainly eats fish whereas the Laysan feeds on squid. So humans have different taste buds and evidently Albatrosses do as well! Lastly, they also eat during the day which most humans do. The Empire — Some Albatrosses create huge colonies on big islands and nest there all happily together, whereas some may keep in smaller groups to nest their chicks.

We could compare this to towns and cities that humans build together to raise their young and live in, all happily together. Family Rituals — Young Albatrosses will join colonies that teach their special mating dances, that their family is famous for, to get ready for their first breeding season. The proper answer : The man was a blind midget, and was part of a sideshow act, billed as "The World's Shortest Man.

He contrived to saw small pieces, one every week or so, from the bottom of the blind man's cane. The World's Shortest Man noticed that his cane felt too short, and became convinced he was growing. He killed himself rather than lose his job, or possibly out of shame. The proper answer : The man was also in the Navy, probably with the guy from Albatross Soup.

He was also shipwrecked, and spent several weeks in a lifeboat with two shipmates, one of whom was a doctor. After their food ran out, and they were desperate, they decided to have the doctor amputate their arms so they could have something to eat They came to an agreement: They would remove and eat one arm from each person besides the doctor, as long as he agreed to have his own arm removed when they were rescued. It was the doctor's arm in the package; he sent it to both of the others so they could verify that he held up his end of the deal.

A variant of this puzzle has one shipmate running into the doctor in a subway, then shooting him because he notices him holding the pole with his supposedly-amputated arm My answer : "Oh, this time capsule has been dug up ten years too early. Better get Jeff to bury it again. The proper answer : The man has been fishing and caught a huge fish. He took fish, pole and gear into the phone booth to call a friend about his success.

The proper answer : The man is blind, and is swimming in the harbor. When it's time for him to come in, his wife is supposed to ring a bell to let him know which way to swim to get to shore. However, a buoy bell tolls first, and the man, thinking it was his wife's signal, swims out towards the buoy.
