Magnificent Frigatebirds on Isla De La Plata

On our trip to Puerto Lopez, we visited Isla De La Plata, Ecuador. It's the home to an amazing number of bird species including the Magnificent Frigatebird. Watch as a colony of frigates fly and swoop. Notice how the males have a red pouch under their beaks that is inflated during the breeding season to attract a mate.
