American
Flamingo

The American Flamingo's brilliant feathers range from a pale pink to scarlet red, with bright pink being the most common. Their bill is perfectly suited to strain plankton and other small invertebrates from the water.  The microscopic shrimp and algae in their diet is also the source of their iconic pink color.
