Our Flamingo Colony - Part 2

Attention: open in a new window. E-mail

pw2This May a new flamingo came to our house from Minnesota. It is a different variety from the ones already in our flamingo preserve. We decided to release it into the wild and see how well it does.
We released it a few weeks ago, and today Ben and Allison came with me into the woods to check on how it is doing.
The intrepid travelers found the birds in their reserve, aparently quite happy.

We had a nice time in the woods. The children took their own path, but found the bird colony alright on their own. I followed behind, keeping them in sight.

They are quite photogenic.

 

The children had a nice time, too.
