Description
The Nazca Booby is considered a subspecies of the masked booby. This is the largest of the booby family, ranging from 75 to 85 cm (30 to 33 in) long, with a 160–170 cm (63–67 in). They have trouble taking off due to their weight and size, so they prefer nesting in cliffs and islets from where it is easier to fly off.
