Mama tross is like, "What kind of baby exchange program is this, anyway?"

This momma bird is so friendly and cooperative she made auntie's work easier.

I raised ducklings & goslings years ago using an older styled incubator. Candling refers to holding an egg up to a light source to see signs of embryo growth. In this case she needs to use the cape to keep outdoor light out

Ranger: "Get up." Albatross: "No." *gets up*

I find myself repeatedly watching this as a sort of therapy.

Albatrosses are famously amazing migrators. I imagine this one somewhere across the globe chatting up a fellow mom: "So, who measures your eggs?" "Who what?" "Your eggs. The lady, with the cape...? No?"

I can only wonder what the bird is thinking while watching this rather strange ritual take place. But I have to admit - it's a pretty charming interaction, all seemingly based on gentleness and trust.

So soothing to see this committed lady spending her time in conservation of nature....love and respect from India... 💐💐👏👏👏🙏🙏

It's an Albatross, one of the largest birds in the world. A legendary sea bird that can fly thousands of miles over the oceans thanks to its fabulous wingspan. Saludos from Uruguay

Over the past few weeks I’ve become personally invested in this bird’s family

the trust these birds have for you in incredible

I like how mama's just watching like "what are you doing? Oh, ok."

Dang that's so crazy how chill this bird is about this human coming up to her and handling her 🥚

I don’t care what anyone says, animals know when humans mean them harm and when they don’t intend to harm them. This beautiful bird allowed this lady to do her job and somehow knew she meant no harm.

I love how she donated some grass to the nest!

Such a lovely , beautiful albatross !!!!! ❤❤❤

a huge bird with a king size beak and this gentle over their eggs? Wow its amazing😘🥰👏

Both are so gentle and respectful to each other 😍

Ranger Sharyn is genuinely one of the coolest people I have ever seen.

rofl! This is hysterical! Imagine being that albatross & this weird hooded human comes up to you & just sits down beside you & then starts giving you eggs & taking them back & doing all sorts of weird things right in front of you. That mum bird's going to have some interesting stories to tell her new baby! Glad to see the egg's medical went well & it's going to hatch into a nice healthy baby to hear those stories :)

Extraordinary. The bird seems to--or obviously--knows Sharyn. Such friendly souls.

They're so friendly with each other. Beautiful moments.

I like the way the bird 'talked' to her - greeted her when she arrived, and said goodbye when she was leaving! And such faith and trust in a brooding bird?!

Блин, так трогательно! Минимум дискомфорта для птицы, с заботой и тактом, молодец биолог!

Wow..... bravo. Salute to the Lady. She handle it so nicely... really appreciate her patience and dedication.....and thanks to the bird for it's co-operation...👍😉

What a beautiful bird and so patient with the lady

Whatever it takes to help the species and nature survive makes me happy and grateful to those that give their life for a real cause

I never realized how large the albatross is. Geez. O_o

The albatross is still trying to figure out this magic trick.

Unexpectedly brilliant, the trust from the albatross is beautiful.

Ich bin sprachlos , da steckt liebe und wissensbegierde , einfach nur toll

Sharyn you are a true professional. That lovely bird could not have been calmer.

the most cooperative bird ı have ever known!

It’s amazing that these birds spend the first 6 years of their lives in flight without ever touching land! They are true masters of flight!

That bird is very trusting - to let her take the egg!

The whole time I'm watching this I'm wondering why on Earth a rough 6th of the people who chose to like/dislike decided that this video deserved a negative..... There's so much crap out there getting 10 thumbs up and this beautiful, wholesome moment in such a beautiful place is getting thumbs down?

I love this mumma bird...she is so beautiful and innocent too

Прекрасная женщина и ученый ! Верно говорят : молясь за себя и другого или спасая другого - спасаются тысячи ! Удачи ей в это нелегкой работе с прекрасными птицами :) Редкая профессия и миссия отдать себя: Богу и Его Миру, чтобы мы видели этих прекрасных птиц и их потомство :) Счастья вам и благополучия Ranger Sharyn :)

This was one of the most amazing lessons in animal behavior, animal trust, animal-human interaction that I have ever seen. Magnificent!

She's so trusting. It's adorable. And so talkative. It's funny how what we might perceive as the same action or sound can actually mean different things. I'm pretty sure it was an entire conversation between them even if the lady is silent.

Watching your work makes me well-up Sharyn. You're 'blessed'!

Wat prachtig , zo respectvol 💖‼️

I love that beak clapping...sweet birds.

Just love watching these interactions between 2 speecies 🐝

this is beautiful. (and on a side note, I can never understand why there are downvotes on these things, 1.3K? Really?) The docgovtnz do amazing work with these majestic, gentle birds.

Both the mama bird and lady are so peaceful and trust each other!!!

Wow. She is beautiful and she is a really big bird. What a sweetheart. ❤️🐦

I am all kind birds breeder, I looked myself when I check eggs. Sweet albatros mom. Wonderful way to teach people love and respect animals.

These birds can live up to 60+ years.....WOW.

She did a great job and was so kind And gentle with mommy albatros:)

I could watch this all day long!..🇹🇿

With a cape like that, she's got to be a superhero!

This video was so relaxing to watch what beautiful background ☺👍

What is happening!? Oh, this is fantastic! Thank you for doing this brilliant work! So gently done! Bravo!

Love and trust between the two is awesome ❣️❤️❤️ love you both

Ranger Sharyn did the greatest magic I have seen and the albatross loved it. Cheers.

I had no idea how large of a bird those are even after many years of watching nature shows. No one ever gets close enough to compare size with until now .

Wow! wonderful! There seems to be a deep connection, intimacy between him and them. All animals and birds also understand the language of love! Even if it is silent. ☺️🌹👌♥️👏🌷

Ranger Sharyn is so gentle with the egg and the mama ... lovely to watch it. It would have been fun to have an explanation of what she was doing throughout -- no idea why she pulled up the grass, etc. I could guess at what candling was, but still, an explanation would have been helpful.

Why are these huge birds so calm and gentle, even when a human is sort of taking away their eggs. No other bird I know would tolerate this, and without creating a noisy ruckus. Amazing anyway.

Great video on saving the endangered species, remarkable relationship with bird. 🙏

She is a very patient Albatross mom. I think she likes you; she wants to converse!😄

This really shows how the albatross trusted them

As long as there are such people, the world will be better.

Danke Liznm für die gute Nachricht, es ist ein Lichtblick in der heutigen Situation 💚💚

Excellent. Well done. This gives me.hope, in a world.of despair.

The video is like I'm doing the whole stuff by myself... So calm!

Damn that's a big bird........so calm and gentle. They have a beautiful relationship and the bird trusts her.

Momma Bird: I will continue snapping my beak until one of you humans brings me fish for my family!

I am from Russia. There is something like a miracle in such friendly animal behaviour across Europe. Cuz animals and birds in Russia are very cautious. While the same birds in Europe shows high level of trust to human. Wish that russian native fauna could be able to re-establish their trust with human.

Albatross r trully magnificent birds & how friendly was this one.. the woman was very gentle & soft 2wards the bird. Interestingly the Albatross sensed no danger & sat up with a minimum of fuss... almost every animal has a sense when 2 trust us humans.. Xcellent

Thank you for respecting nature and take care bird! Respet from Taiwan

God bless you. Great woman

loved watching this. These birds amaze me.

I can't believe how mama willingly got up, watched her take her egg and swap it for a dud, then did the same thing when she swapped it back. I thought there would have been a fight to the death!!

Many birds are able to recognize humans and differentiate between many different humans. I'm around geese regularly and they recognize me as soon as I approach them (no matter if I come up with bicycle or by foot, in summer with T-Shirt or in winter in jacket and with hat). They can read faces, it's amazing! Geese also like some persons, others not so much or at all. I'm always friendly to them so they're friendly to me. It's absolutely great to spend time with them. Birds were a longtime considered to be stupid, but they're not at all, on the contrary. Geese are very social, intelligent and highly developed. I often have the feeling they're a community of little people. I love them to bits

My respect to you and your work,this is just moving

Exemplary cooperation from the bird. Unbelievable.

Wonderful interaction

So... this is what happens after graduating from Hogwarts🤔

You didn't give fish, moma bird was expecting for fish ,i think she deserved one fish atlest.

This view is so beautiful ♡ Just like a painting ♡

She's the kind of a caped hero I did not expect to see :O

What an absolute joy to watch👏🇦🇺

The entire video looks like a painting.

Aww how sweet and gentle ❤

Truly fascinating video,and what a big bird,and so nice to human midwife.

Wonderful video! The bird trusts the lady so much

I love Sharyn's Cloak of Darkness

02:02 what kind of a Sorcery is this the women vanished in to thin air 😱

Fantastic video ❤️❤️❤️

This is very cool!😍What a beautiful bird! She's huge!

Ого. Птица как ручная, не боится😊👍

That is a very tame bird. I can only imagine the trust you've had to build with her for her to allow you to handle her eggs like that.

Despite the beak clapping scold, it appears you two know and trust each other🤔 Very cool!

Bravo caretaker of the earth. You are a born natural gifted loving giving human. Thankyou for your selfless act👼💝

Great job , God bless you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️

Great stuff,,first time for me,,I'll be watching,,,and........loving it..

Glad she is helping Nature, Momma bird is not aggressive. 🙂😃

OMG. I'm speechless😱 Beautiful job, imo.👍👍👍
