I like how the white one just sits there like he’s waiting for the next one to come in. Maybe he’s the air traffic controller.

Oh my gosh!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂😅😆 You can almost see that bird saying “Nobody SAW THAT, right??!” How undignified, but he/she ought to remember they’re an ALBATROSS. The name has connotations! LOL Thanks, Birdie! ❤

The poor thing was so embarrassed he/she walked away without giving the poor chick anything.
Once, I saw a herring gull try a quick takeoff when it saw me coming. Everything would have been fine except it forgot the wind was behind it. It landed on its beak. If ever a bird looked embarrassed, it was that seagull. But at least it landed the right way up!

Reminds me of a sticky note on our fridge, so old the ink has faded:
One thing we all can learn from the cat
Is to always end up looking like “I meant to do that!”
Which would be kind-of tough for this guy. Especially when the legs were sticking up, wiggling wildly.

Exactly! “I MEANT to do that.”

For some reason, my interpretation of that clip is that the landing-fail was a parent bird … tired from parenting the chick that’s watching 🙂 An amazing video, really.
