Flamingo

The most vibrantly colored flamingo species, American flamingos display brilliant scarlet-pink plumage from the carotenoid pigments in their crustacean diet. Found in Caribbean coastal lagoons, salt pans, and mangrove swamps from the Bahamas and Florida through Central America and the Galapagos. Highly gregarious, they nest in huge colonies on mudflat mounds. Their distinctive deep pink color is used to signal health and reproductive quality to potential mates.
