Flamingo Flamant Fenicottero Phoenicopterus
The coloration comes from the carotenoid pigments in the organisms that live in their feeding grounds.
Flamingos were among the most prized in Ancient Roman cuisine: “phoenicopteri linguam praecipui saporis esse apicius docuit”
The one-legged pose can be held without any muscle activity
Using its feet, the bird stirs up the mud, then sucks water through its bill
Flamingos can travel to the distance of 600 kilometers in one night for migration with the speed of 50 to 60 kilometers per hour.
