Great shot but the color appears a little extreme;did you edit with color saturation??? #382240

No, I didn't, actually. This group of flamingos at our zoo has a wide range of colors. The younger ones are very pale, and their colors get more intense as they age. This one must be one of the older ones, because his coloring is pretty dark.

And they tend to be a bit more orange than pink. I think it's because they eat more shrimp down here. ;-)

Thanks,
