Frigate birds... Gotta love 'em. They've been putting us on the mahi here in the keys the past few days. _________________ "I never had an Easter, but I've always had a bunch of speakers" - Beardo |

Do you have any pictures that show the sun the bird and the shore? Just curious how high he was soaring. ....  |

| Love those birds. We see a few juveniles each year at the near rigs. They will kill seagulls if they are mad enough when it comes to competing for food. |

Hey Steve here is a little better picture, you can tell how low the bird was and where I was anchored. Just go find that cloud and you got it.

I don't know about how aggressive they can be toward other seabirds but
when this guy showed up the terns left but the gulls hung around.
