Red-footed Booby Favorite and a brownish-gray bodyThe Red footed Booby is a graceful seabird with white plumage, black wing edges, and bright red feet. It lives on tropical islands across the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic Oceans. A well known trait is its ability to nest in trees, unlike many boobies. Fun fact: its the smallest booby species.
