Description
Pink Flamingos roam freely around the gardens at Jungle Gardens in Sarasota, Florida. You can walk right up to them and feed them out of your hand. They are very gentle and fun to watch. They often tuck their bill into their feathers to take a nap. Sometimes they will all honk at the same time and move their heads in synchronization as they run across the grass. They like to wade their bills back and forth in the water looking for something to eat. I took a series of both color and black and white photos of them. This photo is available in black and white (see" Protected, Black and White").
