 Carol Barrington - DestinationPh, North Seymour Island, Galapagos, Ecuador: Frigate Bird. (From Adventure Life Journeys website: Frigate Birds are one of the oldest species of bird, with a development ranging back 50 million years. Their lengthy evolution has enabled them to develop superb flying ablilities, including soaring without effort for hours, diving down to snatch fish from near the water surface or a baby bird from a nest, and a casual ease at stealing other birds catch in mid flight - earning them the nickname Man oWar or Pirate Bird. Although these birds fly for hours over water thanks to a huge wingspan of around 2 metres [7.5ft], they never land on it, probably because their feathers have a low oil content and they would never be able to take off. |
