    FLAMINGO
    Flamingo, (order Phoenicopteriformes), any of six species of tall, pink wading birds with thick
    downturned bills. Flamingos have slender legs, long, graceful necks, large wings, and short tails.
    They range from about 90 to 150 cm (3 to 5 feet) tall.
    Flamingos are highly gregarious birds. Flocks numbering in the hundreds may be seen in long,
    curving flight formations and in wading groups along the shore. On some of East Africas large
    lakes, more than a million lesser flamingos (Phoeniconaias minor) gather during the breeding
    season. In flight, flamingos present a striking and beautiful sight, with legs and neck stretched out
    straight, looking like white and rosy crosses with black arms. No less interesting is the flock at
    rest, with their long necks twisted or coiled upon the body in any conceivable position. Flamingos
    are often seen standing on one leg. Various reasons for this habit have been suggested, such as
    regulation of body temperature, conservation of energy, or merely to dry out the legs.
