Out in Cancun at present for our 25th wedding anniversary.
The frigate birds when they chase one another are the closest thing I've ever seen to Quidditch.
Absolutely fabulous flying ability. Instead of a golden snitch the prize is a silver fish.
The second chase this afternoon ended when the first bird let go of the fish it had. This poor creature plummeted into a small swimming pool in the hotel next door. It swam around for a couple of seconds then leapt out of the water before sinking to the bottom where it remains now.
Either being caught and carried, the fall or the chemicals in the pool did for it.
One way or another it wasn't its day
