The Greater Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber roseus, Plameňák růžový ) from ZOO Prague, the Czech Republic. Funny birds with beautiful colour :D

DID YOU KNOW THAT... flamingos rest by standing on one leg? The “knee” of the flamingo is actually an ankle joint and the lower leg bends forward. :nod:

The colours on this are astounding almost flourescent. These birds looks so strange don't you think?
What kind of camera do you use?
