    I know albatross are big, but I can’t stop seeing it as an abnormally small man petting an abnormally well-behaved seagull.

    Watch conservationists weigh & feed an underweight chick (not yet fledged, not too happy).

      Underweight my ass. Poor bird is so fat and out of shape that it couldn’t even attempt to flee… :(

        It’s a chick: they just waddle, play with hay, and do flappies while waiting for their parents to occasionally feed them. Albatross chicks are huge.

    That’s the expression of a man who just had a random naked encounter with an albatross. It’s a mix of befuddlement and wonder.
