The Frigatebird
The frigatebird is a seabird common in tropical and subtropical areas. They are noted for their bright red chests and for the fact that they steal from other seabirds. Frigatebirds are able to use one half of their brain at a time to regulate flight while sleeping! These birds can be found on islands like Antigua and Barbuda.
