History & Background

Flamingos have long fascinated naturalists and cultures around the world. Their name comes from the Spanish flamenco, meaning “flame-coloured,” referencing their brilliant pink feathers. Found across Africa, South America, the Caribbean, and parts of Europe, these striking birds have symbolised balance, beauty, and grace for centuries. Their color comes from a diet rich in carotenoid pigments from algae and crustaceans.

Their unique sleeping behavior—balancing on one leg while standing in water—helps conserve body heat and maintain stability in their wetland environment.
