.... er ... well, it is kind of! Though The Chocolate Albatross is a common species for Thailand, it isn't that common where I hunt for butts and  each time I do see it, it annoyingly always sits on top of the trees soaking up the morning sun. This is the only shot I have of it so far which was obviously dead. Hopefully that will change very soon. Watch this space.
