MALE & FEMALE MAGNIFICENT FRIGATEBIRDS IN FLIGHG, PELICAN BAY, NAPLES, FLORIDA, 1/2/2022
We can ID the Magnificent Frigatebird in the first photo as a male by its red gular sac (bare patch of red skin on the throat). The Magnificent Frigatebird in the second and third photos is a female. We can ID this Frigatebird as a female by the absence of the red gular sac and its by its chest not being black, but light in color.
