| A gorgeous male frigate bird looking out for a wife |
Frigate birds are food competitors of the blue-footed booby. They wait until a booby catches a fish and try to pull out its prey in daring manoeuvres. The males of the frigate birds have a red throat sack which they blow up in the mating period in order to impress the females. |
