Juvenile great frigatebird. After breakfast, the entire group from National Geographic Endeavour II landed at North Seymour Island. This is an interesting island because of the fact that the entire site is a sea bird colony. In this picture, you can observe a juvenile great frigatebird chick hoping for a free meal from his parents.

During our first full day of exploration, the guests of National Geographic Endeavour II explored North Seymour Island during the morning, where everybody went on a hike to observe and photograph marine birds like blue-footed boobies and magnificent frigatebirds. During the afternoon, our guests had the chance to snorkel and hike in Rabida Island.
