When I visit the Houston Zoo, I always start with the Chilean Flamingo.
I've been watching the babies grow up.
From this--
Fluffy little grey balls.
To this -- almost all grown up!
Still grey, but beginning to get their pink coloring.
Very handsome!
Wishing YOU well and much joy!
Thanks to Eileen at Saturday Critters.
Thanks, Misty!
Pretty in Pink :)
ReplyDeleteThe babies are so cute! It is wonderful you were able to see them grow up! They are beautiful birds. Thanks for linking up to my critter party. Have a happy weekend!

ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures of Flamingo and babies are SO adorable♡♡♡ In my city's tiny zoo section of the park, they are in the cage and I felt really sad about it :-) Thank you very much for the wonderful pictures!

ReplyDeleteHow fascinating to see the baby flamingo all growing up! Love love the shot!
ReplyDeleteThis post and your photos was just an extra sweet publishing!! I love it all.
ReplyDeleteHi!
I'm trying to catch up on your posts after you left me a comment last week while I was out birding most days along with a national birding convention being held in our city. Hope your week ahead is a good one. Thanks for stopping by to leave me a comment.
They are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe babies are cute and the adults have always been pleasant to watch for me. I wonder why people use plastic flamingoes on their lawn when a special event comes along?
