Midway remains an important breeding ground for the Laysan albatross. They inhabit the entire island, including human settlements. It now part of the 140,000-square-mile Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument and home to 70% of the world’s Laysan albatross population.

Midway Atoll was utilized by Pan American Airways as an island stop on their transpacific route to Asia from the 1930s to the 1950s. Midway was an important base for Pan Am’s transpacific flying boat routes on the leg between Hawai’i and Wake Island.

Wisdom, the oldest-known wild bird in the world has laid an egg this year, her first in four years. The Laysan albatross was banded as an adult in 1956 and has returned to Midway Atoll national wildlife refuge to lay eggs every year since 2006.
