Magnificent Frigate Bird

I am a slender looking sea bird having forked tails, long hooked bills and a white under belly. My genus is marked by sexual dimorphism. My mate tries to do so many wonderful things so that I would fall for him.Likewise,wonderful courtship display allows me to do a perfect selection and hang on to an everlasting relationship. Possessing fantabulous stamina and striking feature~ he inflates his red gular throat pouches like heart shape,kept drumming love call untill I became impressed. Each male took turn to out do each other .. But, I loved him at first sight attracted to his musical performance.Aah..he looked magnificent with puffed chest.Shortly we engaged.He gave me a cozy nest to rest. We, at times perch on tree tops at night for romance. Being aerial ~he soars throughout the day hunting for food and late night he comes to me. Essentially categorised as kleptoparasite ~either we catch other birds or snatch food from their savings. Swooping down to feed on squid and fish he is often attacked by our predators tuna or dolphins and chased to the surface. I worry for him untill he is back home.Once he's back we enjoy, care & fulfill each of our desires. Laying single egg, each year we relish the experience of parenthood every breeding season. 17-7-2020 Disclaimer: Sexual dimorphism is the condition where the two sexes of the same species exhibit different characteristics beyond the differences in their sexual organs.The condition occurs in many animals & some plants too.Differences may include secondary sex characteristics, size, weight, colour, markings, and may also include behavioral & cognitive differences.
