Magnificent Frigatebird grabs Royal Tern by the tail and shakes it – no respect to Your Highness

What else can I say. The young Man O’War Magnifico did not show any respect to Your Highness still choking on a freshly caught fish, and after grabbing the royal tail during a midair chase shook the blue blood vigorously for a moment. I think the royal blood, and personal pride, helped Your Highness to save his honor and to swallow his fish despite the condition (and lacking the dignified position) he was in. Well, maybe food before honor? Who knows. The Magnifico let Your Highness go but kept chasing him a little to show him who’s the boss.

It was real fun to watch.
