A great find!
What are the criteria for separating Christmas Island Frigatebird from Great?
Cheers

Would anyone kindly explain why this is not a Lesser Frigatebird?
Can it be a second year Lesser Frigatebird?

I - who saw the bird - have had very little time to check sources, but I've got one or two that suggest that black extending up the belly can only indicate Lesser.
I've never seen a frigatebird in this moult condition and maybe that is giving it the unusual, rangey, angular proportions it seemed to have, which seemed wrong for Lesser at the time

Frigatebird
On "Oriental Bird Images" THIS is labelled as a Lesser, and looks quite similar to the one near Lamma on 25th April 2010

The image of a juvenile Lesser Frigatebird in Harrison's seabirds also looks a good match - Mike T's comments about the extent of black on the belly, and the shape of the spurs seems to point in that direction.
Geoff, since I didn't see it makes no difference whatever which one it turns out to be!
Cheers
Mike

I saw this bird from the Stanley to Po Toi Ferry at about 3.45pm last Sunday.
Here are three photos from the other side of the world.
It looked pretty big to me, so under the Geoff Carey rules for identification, I'll go for Greater Frigatebird
