Pink Flamingo

The pink flamingo is a symbol of beauty and grace, easily recognizable by its long legs, curved neck, and vibrant feathers. Found in wetlands and salt lakes across Africa, Asia, and southern Europe, their pink coloration comes from the carotenoids in their diet of algae and crustaceans.

Flamingos are highly social birds, forming large colonies of thousands. They engage in synchronized dances during courtship, an extraordinary display of their coordination and social structure. Despite their widespread distribution, flamingos are vulnerable to habitat loss, water pollution, and human disturbances. Conservation efforts focus on protecting their breeding and feeding grounds to ensure these iconic birds thrive for generations to come.
