Hi Smew Mao & Mike,

Interesting thoughts. David James wrote a nice article on Frigatebird ID a
few years ago. See here:
http://tanzaniabirds.net/articles/Frigatebird-ID-BirdingAsia.pdf


I was wondering if the Black Drongo in one of Smew Mao's pictures could be
of use for getting some information on morphometrics of the frigatebird?

Cheers,

Nikolas
