How about a "Frigate Friday"?

When we were docking in St. Barth's last month these really large black birds were swooping and swarming our ship. We learned they were Frigatebirds, it was the first time we had seen them, they really soared on the wind currents and put on quite a show for us. Since I don't have a flamingo photo for Flamingo Friday, I thought this fellow could fill the bill, in a tongue in cheek kind of way. Smile

Brilliant silhouette against the clouds.

Great capture against those beautiful clouds. I don't think I've ever seen a Frigate bird before.

A wonderful silhouette set off against the beautiful blue fluffy cloud sky.

Lovely silhouette.

Wonderful silhouette that really stands out against that brilliant sky. I have never seen nor heard of a frigate bird before.

A beautiful silhouette image, Lou Ann! This is a first for me . . . I've been introduced to so many new birds on this site, it's amazing! One of the many reasons I thoroughly enjoy this 365 project. :-)

@annied @farmreporter @claudiet @henrir @taffy @onewing @littleconnie @ziggy77 @gaylewood Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and faves. These were really big birds, I enjoyed reading about them, they were amazing coasting gracefully in the wind currents above the ship.

A Flamingo-Friday Frigate it is...and a beauty at that! Wonderful silhouette, and gorgeous clouds! I think I need another cruise to get away from all the phone and electrical wires that block beautiful views!

[Lou Ann]

@Weezilou I so agree about those power lines! They make me crazy!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great catch! Love how the silhouette shows off that interesting tail.
