There ins one record of a Magnificent Frigatebird on Lake Tawakoni but 
it was after Hurricane Ike and believe there is another DFW records I 
believe but I am far from certain seen by Martin Reid many years ago if 
I am wrong Martin I apologize in advance .  But it was seen by a well 
known D-FW BIRDER
