Colourfulphotography - Pink flamingo

in #colourfulphotography7 years ago (edited)

I took this photo on Isabella island and here is some facts about flamingo:

  • Young flamingos are typically a pale gray and flamingo’s pink feathers come from what they eat.

  • In general flamingo’s diet consists of small fish, shrimp and different types of algae.

  • It is the carotenoids found in the algae and the shrimp that make flamingos pink.

Beautiful shot of the beautiful flamingo. I have never seen one in real life.
I also didn't know that they get their pink color from the food they eat.

Very nice post @elviento and I learned something new today.
Love it
