[Frigatebirds] Lesser Frigatebird - Record photo

Thanks for posting the photo.

This frigatebird does not show white spur on underwing auxillaries. Is it really a Lesser Frigatebird?

Also, the white belly patch goes down to the position of feet. I am thinking it would be a Christmas Frigatebird.

I agree with Geoff that it is a Lesser Frigatebird now.

The first pictures show the distant view of the bird which does not have the white spur, but later photos could show this feature and size with the Black Kites, indicating that should be a Lesser.
