That is one fact I did know. My other flamingo fact is that young are not really pink, and the pinkness comes as they age. I remember seeing them en masse in Singapore.

I did not know this. I read the article and I can't help but think God made a goof when creating this bird...lol

I certainly did not know that. That is interesting! Thank you, my friend, for that link that gives more information as to why they do that.
