hapsara > Orange flamingo: beauty Do you know that flamingos obtain their color from a shrimp-rich diet ?
hapsara > Orange flamingo: relax
hapsara > King pinguin: chat. King penguins eat small fish, mainly lanternfish, and squid and rely less on krill and other crustaceans. On foraging trips they repeatedly dive to over 100 metres (350 feet), often over 200 metres (700 feet). This is far deeper than other penguins, other than their closest relative, the larger Emperor penguin. King Penguins breed on the subantarctic islands at the northern reaches of Antarctica, as well as Tierra del Fuego, the Falkland Islands, and other temperate islands of the region. The total population is estimated to be 2.23 million pairs and is increasing. (taken from Wikipedia)
hapsara > King pinguin: get in the line please...you there, pay attention. The King Penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) is the second largest species of penguin at about 90 cm (3 ft) tall and weighing 11 to 16 kg (24 to 35 lb), second only to the Emperor Penguin. (taken from Wikipedia)
hapsara > King pinguin: float
hapsara > Orange flamingo: what a pose. Flamingos frequently stand on one leg. The reason for this behavior is not fully known. One common theory is that tucking one leg beneath the body may conserve body heat, but this has not been proven. It is often suggested that this is done in part to keep the legs from getting wet, and in addition to conserving energy. In addition to standing in the water, flamingos may stamp their webbed feet in the mud to stir up food from the bottom. (taken from Wikipedia)
hapsara > Orange flamingo: elegant. Caribbean Flamingos (Phoenicopterus ruber) can be found in Caribbean and Galapagos islands. They are most eye-catching with their bright orange-y feather and slightly pink-ish around their wings. Their oddly-shaped beaks are used to separate their foods, brine shrimps, from the mud and silt. (quoted from Wikipedia)
hapsara > Pink flamingo (Lesser Flamingos)
