Manx Shearwater — Average Life Span is 15 Years But There Are Impressive Exceptions

While their average life span is only about 15 years,there's one Manx shearwater whose been circling the globe for at least 51 years and who has flown an estimated 5 million miles in his lifetime. According to Guinness World Records,this Manx shearwater is the oldest wild bird on record. Ornithologists ringed the bird in 1957, and he was last spotted off an island in Wales in 2004.

Cheers Mr. Manx
