Frigatebirds

First, let me apologize for my tardiness in getting post us lately. This week is a new problem. I have changed browsers and it does not seem to work with blogger so I have resorted to the old tried-and-true to get this done while I sort out how to make this all work with the new one. Now, on to the interesting stuff...

These male frigatebirds are really something with their gular pouches all inflated to the max while sitting on the nest. You can just tell he is really proud.

However, with both parents sitting low enough that I can see their backs, you can now tell just what sort of color they have on there.

This fellow has just returned from a foray, no doubt to find food.

In fact, at this close range with the wings up, you can see that there a small green patch on his breast.
