Flamingos are a common familiar sight even for those who have never seen in real life. Tropical wading birds have long legs with a backward bending of the knees, long curved neck, and, above all, they are pink. We can admire the flamingos, or laugh at them (and often both), so that we can learn something about them.

Flamingo, tend to congregate in the mudflats or lagoons, where they can find shallow salt water prey. These habitats also difficult for negotiate to predators.

American flamingos live in the West Indies, Yucatan, in the northern part of South America and the Galapagos Islands. Chilean, Andean and James flamingos live in South America, and the larger and smaller flamingos live in Africa. Pink flamingos can be found also in the Middle East and India.

Flamingos are water birds, so they live in and around the lagoons or lakes. These reservoirs are generally alkaline or saline.
