The brown Booby can be found across the pantropical oceans with few exceptions. Breeding sites include the Caribbean, the Atlantic coasts of Brazil and Africa, the oceanic islands of Madagascar, the Red Sea, northern Australia, many oceanic islands in the western and central Pacific, as well as on the coasts of Mexico and Peru . This species is strictly marine, feeding generally in coastal waters. Their diet consists mainly of flying fish and squid, but also of a half-peak (Hemiramphu), mullet (Mugil) and anchovy (Engraulis). The dam is usually caught by immersion and can also snatch the dam from the surface of the water. Kleptoparasitism has been observed, especially by females. Breeding is seasonal in some breeds by other opportunistic breeds or more or less continually. Nests are usually built on the ground in the middle of vegetation on rocky islands or coral atolls. Individuals form colonies that are generally smaller than other Sula species (del Hoyo et al., 1992).
