Here’s Don Dickerman, who, when he wasn’t measuring frigate bird wingspans as part of the Department of Tropical Research’s 1925 Arcturus Expedition to the Galápagos, was running a Greenwich Village nightclub called the Pirates’ Den. Obsessed with pirates, Dickerman also had a bit part in Errol Flynn’s pirate movie The Sea Hawk. Photo © WCS. WCS Archives DTR Photo Collection. #pirateday #frigatebird #galapagos #dtr #archives
