294. Magnificent Frigatebird

Date         April 11, 2019
Location    East Marco Bay, Marco Island, FL




This time we were on a dolphin eco-tour in the Marco Island tour. The naturalist (Kent) and pilot (Mike) were both quite familiar with the wildlife. I saw one of these soaring high above us, and I asked what it was. I suspected frigatebird, but I wasn't sure if it was wishful thinking. Mike confirmed it for me.

Later, Kent showed everyone a picture of a frigatebird and talked about them for a bit. By this time, there were about half a dozen soaring above us.
