Flamingo Friday '18 07

Well, it's Friday, and you know what that means - Flamingo's!!

[Taffy]

Haha -- great to see the group running to greet you!

[Junko Y]

hilarious! I just watched Planet Earth 2 and I didn't realize flamingoes actually behaved in such funny ways. Good capture!

[M. Brutus]

And you never disappoint. I think this is my favorite so far. I like the way it focuses on their eyes. Makes it kind of eerie. Are they really that color? Fav

[Joanna kate]

Their eyes glow and the way they hold their heads....

[Peter]

Brilliant pose, composition, colour and detail, they seem to be very disapproving of the photographer with their noses stuck up in the air, Great shot Ron:)

[Lou Ann]

Awesome, just awesome! You know I’m thrilled to see these guys. Are they on their way to Vegas to play Flamingo Bingo at the Flamingo? 😊

[Sally Ings]

They are gathered for a meeting! Just deciding who should chair it.....

[Denise Wood]

FAVtastic Flamingo Friday Foto :)

[Rachel]

Oh, I knew it was you Ron. They are such weird looking birds.

[Poppo Livy]

They got fire in their eyes

[Ron]

@taffy I suppose they know they're now famous. Bunch of hams.

[Ron]

@jyokota Thanks Junko. They are entertaining at times.

[Ron]

@mbrutus Thanks Marshall. Yep, the eyes are that color. I believe they're Lesser Flamingos (there are only six varieties) and they all seem to have these redish eyes - the ones at Safari Park, anyway.

[Ron]

@joannakate Thanks Joanna. Always nice to hear from you.

[Ron]

@pcoulson Thanks Peter - that's why I love them I guess. Playing hard to get. I enjoy the challenge!

[Ron]

@louannwarren Ha ha, you know I love going to the Flamingo Hilton! And I like to hit the In N Out on Flamingo Blvd. Good call!

[Ron]

@salza Ha, you're probably right! Lots of meetings at this place - sounds pretty boring!

[Ron]

@gilbertwood Thanks Denise - I always appreciate your favs. :)

[Ron]

@888rachel Thanks Rachel. I guess I'll never shake this reputation. :(

[M. Brutus]

@stray_shooter Looked at the photo again. Awesome and eerie again.

[Ron]

@terryliv Must be females, huh? I seem to get that look from all species.
