Of the three known species of Brown Boobies, the “Atlantic Booby” is the one that breeds in the Caribbean. Bearing the same brown and white plumage as other species of boobies, the Atlantic Booby can be distinguished by its mostly yellow-orange facial skin, a dark spot in front of the eye, a pale yellow or straw-yellow bill, and yellowish feet. | Photo courtesy of Randy Freeman.
