Troubled Waters -Trailing the Albatross: An Artist's Journey

Bruce Pearson

The world's great oceans are largely beyond most people's experience and imagination. But for the past three decades or more, a tragedy has been unfolding out of sight on the open ocean.

Hundreds of thousands of seabirds, albatrosses especially, are being snared accidentally by long-line fishing vessels.

After living and working among an abundance of albatrosses thirty five years ago on a remote island in the Southern Ocean, Bruce Pearson returned recently to see what had happened to some of the birds he had known so well.

'Troubled Waters' offers insights into our understanding of the seabird's lives and the ocean environment, and inspires new engagement and identification with an extraordinarily urgent conservation crisis. 136 pages.
