Unlike my previous post I can give the full name to the flamingos shown in this photograph. The are Chilean Flamingos (
Phoenicopterus chilensis), one of the larger flamingos, with striking colouration. In the captive conditions in which I photographed them they appear to be very gregarious, closing ranks at all times. However, when I look at shots of the species taken in the wild they appear just as companiable.
