Whoa
You are huge!
You think I'm big? Look at the weird hairless ape on the right!
Thank you.
I know albatross are big, but I can't stop seeing it as an abnormally small man petting an abnormally well-behaved seagull.

He wants to fuck that bird, doesn't he?
Looks mutual
Oh well that's ok then.
God literally used the scale-up tool on a seagull. I guess it was a Friday afternoon in the animal design bureau.
Don't do it man!
Doesn't really show the friggin' massive wingspan of the damn things, though...
Woah is that Bill Murray?
No.
Made you look!
Your armspan is your height..what does this pose accomplish?
You've earned me chip, big fella
When their pecker is bigger than your 'pecker'...
Never let a bird with a beak that size get it that close to your junk.
If risky to put dick in mouth, why make it friend sized?
That dinosaur is about to eat that 8 year old boy, is nobody doing anything?!
Original Illustration to Samuel Coleridge's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner", 1798 (not colorized).
I was think of this! How the fuck did he hang that from his neck??
Yeah, I didn't realize that when I first heard it. I guess that's why it's a punishment. If they just hung a tiny parakeet off his neck, it wouldn't be much of a punishment.
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.
What flavor is it?
Sea bird
This reminds me of that one subreddit, “science diagrams that look like shitposts“ or something like that?
!sciencediagramshitposting@sh.itjust.works
Ooh and that's alright, I'm ok
I'll pet the albatross
For one more day
At that size it gets difficult to imagine having one hung from your neck.
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.
Quit ruining my narrative with your facts and logic!
Carlos for scale.
Hm, how tall is the person? I mean people's size varies. You can be under a meter or 2m 10.
i just realized the only way for me to actually comprehend their size is to think of them as glide-flying swans
ALLLLBATROOOSSS!
Let me tell you all a story 'bout a mouse named Lorry
