병수 형 찍은 군함조가 큰군함조 맞는지 닐무어스 씨가 David James라는 사람한테 물어봤답니다.
아래 이메일 보내왔습니다. 큰군함조 맞는데, 크리스마스섬군함조(한국 미기록종)일 가능성도 쬐끔 있다네요.
Dear Mr. Yong-Chang Jang,
Warm greetings from Busan.
Finally, I heard back today from David James, the well-known Australian expert on frigatebird identification who earlier confirmed Korea's first Great Frigatebird record.
Based on the single image, he wrote that he believes the Jeju 2007 bird most probably to be a first calendar year (juvenile) Great Frigatebird. While ruling out Lesser Frigatebird, he cannot 100% rule out an unusually plumaged Christmas Island Frigatebird (a species recorded VERYrarely as far north as Japan, therefore being very much rarer in Japan than either Great or Lesser Frigatebirds which are both recorded annually there I believe).
