About Magnificent Frigatebird - National Bird

The magnificent frigatebird, known as the national bird of Antigua, is a remarkable and distinctive seabird found in the Caribbean region. With its long, forked tail, slender body, and impressive wingspan, the frigatebird is a true aerial acrobat. The males have a striking appearance, showcasing a vibrant red throat pouch that they inflate during courtship displays to attract females. These skilled fliers spend much of their lives soaring above the open ocean, using their keen eyesight and maneuverability to spot and snatch prey, such as fish and squid, from the water's surface. The magnificent frigatebird holds a special place in the hearts of the people of Antigua, symbolizing the beauty and resilience of their island nation.
