What is a "frigate bird"?

A frigate bird is a large, seabird with a wingspan of up to 7 feet. They are known for their impressive aerial abilities and can stay aloft for days at a time, soaring over the ocean with their long, pointed wings. Frigate birds are also known for their distinctive throat pouches, which the males inflate during the breeding season to attract mates. They are found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world and feed on fish and squid that they snatch from the ocean surface. They have a keen eye for spotting fish near the ocean's surface and are skilled at aerial piracy, stealing food from other birds in mid-air. Frigate birds are often found in tropical and subtropical regions, where they nest in colonies on cliffs or trees.
