02-23-2013 "Oh NO, Not Another Camera" These birds amaze me how they can sleep and rest with one leg brought up. Another shot at Seaworld. Sutton is loving all the comments on my post of her yesterday. She and I appreciate it. Donna
"Flamingo Enjoying A Drink"
Al Wathba Lake, July 2012 © Salim Javed
A GREATER FLAMINGO THAT MAY HAVE BEEN BLOWN INTO TEXAS BY HURRICANE ANDREW. WILDLIFE OFFICERS AT LAGUNA ATASCOSA NWR ON THE TEXAS GULF COAST WERE AWARE THAT A FLAMINGO HAD ARRIVED AT THE REFUGE. FOR QUITE A WHILE IT REMAINED ON THE OUTER REACHES OF THE VAST, SHALLOW LAKES ON THE REFUGE AND THEY HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET AN ID PHOTO TO VERIFY THE SPECIES. THEN, ON THE SAME MORNING THAT WE WERE PHOTOGRAPHING A MELANISTIC ROSEATE SPOONBILL ON ONE SIDE OF ONE OF THE TOUR ROADS, THE FLAMINGO MOVED CLOSER TO US ON THE LAKE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD! WHAT A DAY! WE WERE ABLE TO GET A PHOTO AND TO IDENTIFY THIS LOVELY BIRD AS A GREATER FLAMINGO.
