Hi all

Back in August 2009 I photographed a frigatebird at Michaelmas Cay in the
Great Barrier Reef, Queensland, Australia. At the time I was uncertain as
to whether it was Greater or Lesser, and an experienced Queensland birding
friend also felt unsure about the ID. Having posted about it on my blog I
then solicited opinions on the Seabird-News Google group, but no one there
committed to a firm ID either. If anyone on ID-Frontiers with relevant
experience would be interested in commenting, I'd appreciate the feedback.

Images of the bird can be viewed here:

Thanks in anticipation,

Dominic Mitchell
