Magnificent Frigatebirds photographed on Isabela Island (Isla Isabel) of the Revillagigedo Island group off Baja peninsula's Pacific coast during the cruise of the Kinkajou. The magnificent frigatebird (Fregata magnificens) was sometimes previously known as man o'war, reflecting its rakish lines, speed, and aerial piracy of other birds.
