Fun facts:

There are four flamingo species distributed throughout the Americas (including the Caribbean), and two species native to Afro-Eurasia.

The Andean flamingo is the only flamingo species with yellow legs.

Have you ever wondered why flamingos are pink or orange? Some foods, such as carrots, get their orange color from carotenoids. If you ate nothing but carrots, your skin and even your eyes would become orange. Flamingoes eat algae and tiny shellfish that are rich in carotenoids, which is why these birds are pink or orange. If they ate a different diet, they would lose their brilliant color.
