Until now, the only ones I have seen have been pink. Apparently, that colour is diet related but I prefer to think that this Caribbean variety has just “lucked up” with their brilliant orange plumage.
It is early morning, and this group are still waiting for the sun to warm the day before stretching their long necks. It’s the first time that I’ve had the opportunity to combine my brand new camera with my long lens. I’m enjoying the opportunity of playing with the colour of, and lackadaisical start to, this bird’s day.
But most of all, I like the fact that it is entirely acceptable to call a group of flamingos, a flamboyance.
