Why are flamingos pink? 🦩 A greater flamingo’s (Phoenicopterus roseus) pink coloration comes from its diet of shrimp and other pink crustaceans. The carotenoid found in their diet contains a red-orange pigment which is also found in carrots and sweet potatoes. If they do not eat shrimps, their feathers can turn pale. #EarthCapture by draksphotography . . . . #bbcearth #birds #flamingos #greaterflamingos #wildlife #wildlifephotography #nature #naturephotography #amazinganimals #naturelovers #earth #earthlovers
