Flamingo Friday - 018

Flamingos are unable to wipe their mouths after a drink of water......so they drool.

[Ashley]

Haha!!! News to me!!!

[Joy's Focus]

You are so educated in Flamingo trivia! I see what you mean with the drool hanging from their beaks.

[Pam Knowler]

They are so beautifully ugly!! I love them and their fabulous colour!! Fav!

[Sally Ings]

I agree with Pam, they are beautifully ugly!

[Peter]

Simply gorgeous capture with beautiful detail, colour and depth of field, you have really turned photographing Flamingos into an art form Ron, lovely bit of trivia, every days a school day:)

[Babs]

Ha ha, I didn't know that.

[Denise Wood]

terrific dribblers :)

[Sunkist]

I actually LOVE Flamingos :) Nice shot

[summerfield]

drooling flamingos. i think i should have a pet flamingo; wonder if i can keep it in the balcony?

[Ron]

@shesnapped Stick with me and I'll bore you silly with such useless info! Thanks for stopping by and commenting Ashley.

[Ron]

@joysfocus I know what it's like not to be able to wipe my mouth. Drooling is justified. Thanks, Joy.

[Ron]

@pamknowler @salza Agreed. I refer to them as being simultaneously beautiful and goof looking. Which makes it all that much more fun to photograph!

[Ron]

@pcoulson Thanks as always Peter. One must never stop acquiring knowledge, right?

[Ron]

@onewing @gilbertwood Thanks for commenting ladies. Who knew that dribbling could be so scrutinized?

[Ron]

@jin1x Thanks Miss Sunkist. I love them too - at least for photographic purposes. I've never really gotten to know one well.

@summerfield I believe they're permitted to keep on balconies in Toronto, providing you keep a muzzle on them. Let me know when you get one and be sure to take some photos!
