Flamingos are large birds that are identifiable by their long necks, sticklike legs and pink or reddish feathers. Flamingos embody the saying "you are what you eat."

The pink and reddish colors of a flamingo's feathers come from eating pigments found in algae and invertebrates.

Flamingos are water birds, so they live in and around lagoons or lakes. These bodies of water tend to be saline or alkaline.

Flamingos are generally nonmigratory, but changes in climate or water levels in their breeding areas will cause them to relocate, according to Sea World.
