RIP 'Greater' the world's oldest Greater Flamingo

Sadly 'Greater' the flamingo who lived in Adelaide Zoo, passed away on 31st January. He was 83 years old and had lived at the Zoo since the 1930's. He was the last Greater Flamingo in Australia and at the moment more cannot be imported into this country. I took this pic last year but wanted to acknowledge his passing.

Great shot. They are fun birds to capture.

Thank you for posting this. It is always sad when any creature dies, especially one with such a history.
