5 Interesting Facts About Flamingos!

Flamingos are actually born white - they turn pink from the carotenoid pigments in the algae and shrimp they eat. A flamingo kept away from its natural diet would gradually turn white.
They stand on one leg not to rest, but because it actually requires less muscle effort than standing on two - the one-legged posture is held by a passive locking mechanism that needs no muscle activity at all.
Flamingos eat with their heads upside down - they hold their beaks inverted and pump water through special filters to sieve out tiny organisms, like a living strainer.
A group of flamingos is called a flamboyance - which is possibly the best collective noun in the English language and entirely deserved.
Baby flamingos are grey and fluffy, and are fed by both parents on crop milk - a blood-red liquid produced in the parents' digestive tracts, rich in fat and protein.
