Royal Albatross Hatchling Gets A Weight Check From Rangers In New Zealand | DOC | Cornell Lab

- It's time to check the weight of the Northern Royal Albatross hatchling at the Top Flat nest!
Watch Ranger Sharyn from the New Zealand Department of Conservation stop by to gently inspect the hatchling, weigh it with a bag and scale, and spray the nest with a bird-safe insecticide that will help keep parasitic flies away from the chick.
At the end, Ranger Sharyn gives an update that the chick is close to recovering its hatch weight of 300 grams. It is normal for hatchings to lose some weight after returning to the nest. They should recover quickly and begin to grow as the adults begin feeding sessions.
RoyalCam was set up in January 2016 by the Department of Conservation and the Cornell Lab has been collaborating with DOC since 2019 to bring the cam to life. To learn more while watching, view the cam at

*******************************
Royal Cam is a 24-hour live stream of a Northern Royal Albatross nest during the breeding season at Pukekura/Taiaroa Head on the southeast tip of New Zealand's South Island.
This season (2023-24) features two nests in view. At the main site to the left of the frame, male LGK (named for his colored leg band combination: Lime/Green/Black) and female LGL (Lime/Green/Lime) return to the Top Flat nest site, where they are caring for a single egg laid on November 7.
Nearby to the right, male WYL (White/Yellow/Lime) and female BOK (Blue/Orange/Black) have been tending to their egg since it was laid on November 14 at the Top Track Flat site. This site is currently obscured by tall grass, which will die down and open up the view as the season progresses.

Parent knows the drill, patiently waits for baby to be returned. 😍
Yeah, the parents are old pros but you can hear the little one being very vocal in their protest 😀
Love the care NZ DoC rangers provide! 💕 I continue to be astounded by how calm these big beautiful Albatross parents are as humans just casually take the little one (and have to assume the parents know it's all for good reason). Thanks to everyone at the DoC and the Royal Albatross Centre.
This brings me so much awe and joy! How privileged we are to be able to have a peak into these amazing birds’ lives.
this ranger has such a soothing presence! Look how calm the birds are.
It's a treat to see the gentle care by the naturalist and amazing to see how tolerant the parent is. This research helps protect the species.
In the beginning it’s a small bag, and after a while, they need a huge basket and two rangers to get a weight 😀
I never appreciated how large these birds are, until I saw this video.
These birds are so special. Beautiful, docile and sweet. The baby is adorable! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow. That mama has complete trust in you!! What a sweet sweet girl she is
Such sweet patient birds!
Isn't it magical how the parent quietly waits.
Thank you Ranger Sharon. Does that baby feel as soft as he looks? Such a beautiful baby!❤❤❤
Thanks for stopping and talking to the camera! ❤❤❤ really appreciate the work you do. 😊
This is so joyful to watch. I smiled the whole time. The parent just waited there patiently for Sharon to take care of business. Just a awesome experience to watch this ❤ Thank you everyone ❤
Ranger Sharyn and her team continue to do their devout specialized work again this season. I watched them with Lilibet and Manaaki too. LGL mom vocalized at that end as what appears was a gratitude gesture. The albatross amaze me with their trust, gentle nature and Mighy presence . What a beautiful beginning to this season. 💝🙏
Beautiful, just beautiful...Thank you for this special clip 🤗
Mama is so patient it really un elievable.
Thank you for sharing. So, wonderful to witness the chick, parents,.
Cute. How come the mom is so calm about her baby being grabbed though?
they are so precious (the parent and the baby). the parent is so patient waiting for the staff to finish their examination. I would be worried either the parent or the baby would get nervous and fidgety. even the baby did not seem to mind the exam...
Such a smooth cooperation between LGL and Sharyn🤗💙Super encouraging information after first check about chickI keep finger crossed for further good development🤞😍 Thank you Sharyn for update🤗
That whole scene was so beautiful ❤❤❤, maybe a little chatter when she left.
потрясающее взаимодействие человека и дикой природы!))❤❤ спасибо за новости)
The first of many weigh ins. Thanks for the commentary at the end of Sharyn. I wish we could have some more of that.
That is amazing! Then this beautiful bird seems to say thank you for the wellness visit.
Absolutely love this! Mommy trusts her completely with her baby!
they know the human is helping them ❤❤
C’est beau cette confiance mutuelle. Quel oiseau magnifique 😊
I love this film. Placed a smile on my face
I just love the albartross cams! So nice to watch their behavior.
I love how momma had to get the last word in 😅... "Next time I may not make it so easy for you."
TOROA MAMA❤ DOC RANGER SHARYN. What a Beauty Albie Baby 😍 And I realy Love the Parents. KARERE & TIAKIS get a new Sibling. Dear Albie Lovers, enjoy the best Time of the YEAR.Yeah
These little ones are so precious. Thanks for a look at them
This is so beautiful to watch! Thank you for sharing.
100% amazing birds. Thank you for all the work you do.
Incredible to watch how accepting the mom is with the ranger. What is the substance sprayed in the nest ?
Oh the ignominy of being shoved(gently) into a cold bag, must be ok mum allowed it😢 Sharon is sooo gentle
Mama bird trusts and loves mama ranger!
Awww thank you. 😊
Can't get over how meek the birds are to the handlers. Really miss seeing the albatross in Hawaii -- wish another camera location could be found.
I miss my Laysan albatross too. Their grey fluff balls are a contrast to these white fluff balls.
AMAZING!
Extraordinary!
Mom watches if everything is well done lol
Mom is wondering..what's taking so long ❤
Birb parent be like “hey wheres my snackies!” when hooman leaves 😅
what did she spray before putting the chick back in the nest?
Love this ❤
Why is the adult bird so comfortable around the human ?
Wee tiny weight bag vs Manaaki's big weight bucket before fledge😋❤
I’m so in love. ❤
What did she spray around the nest?
I'm amazed that the bird lets the human do that. 😲
Does the bird understand what you are doing with her baby chick greetings from Canada
I wonder if the albatrosses have been under conservation long enough that they think that it's a normal part of growing up to be put in a bag and weighed, or if that's just the fatal lack of predator reaction they tend to have on remote islands turned to good use for once. I also wonder a bit if the albatrosses would like scritches, because most birds do...
C'est magnifique😊😂❤❤❤
großartig zu sehen
Already a weigh in😊
How does the bird wait ... why isn't it attacking?
Couldn't hear a word she said...but I think all is well
She said the chick has lost some weight which is normal in the first day. It's gained a little bit from the first feed but not up to 300grams it was last time. She will do an update later.
@@Blue_Skies05 thanks.
O albatroz é assim tão sociável?!
back to the tiny bag 😂
❤☺️🙏
What? No treat for the bird for being so patient?
How do I get this job ! :O

Why don't you bring that adult bird a couple of small fish? What is wrong with your feelings?
It’s not a pet. Wild birds hunt for themselves.
