Flamingo Coloring Pages
Welcome to my Flamingo coloring pages section.
Flamingos are pink because of what they eat. Tiny shrimp and algae are full of a natural pink pigment, and it slowly colors their feathers, so a well-fed flamingo can be anything from soft pink to bright fuchsia. They stand on one leg for long naps, tucking the other up out of the cool water. When it’s time to eat, they dunk their heads upside down and strain their dinner through their curved beaks.

Flamingo Chicklets
Flamingo chicks aren’t born pink. They hatch fluffy and grey, and it takes a year or two of eating the right food before they turn rosy. Both parents feed them a rich “milk” from their throats at first, and that milk can even be a little pink itself.
