The Frigatebird is a large
species of sea-bird that has an enormous wingspan exceeding two meters in
length. Males are most commonly known for their red throat pouch, which are
inflated to attract females during the mating season.
Frigatebirds are sea-birds
and have a meat-based carnivorous diet, primarily fish including flying fish, and
crustaceans, and even small sea turtles.
the Frigatebird is unable to
walk that well and cannot swim. Frigatebirds have to pluck their prey from the
water without landing as they are unable to take-off from a flat surface such
as water.
