"Look at all the birdies, Cam! What are they?!!?" "Flamingos. An entire flock of Pink Flamingos!" |
Isn't that amazing?!!? Flamingos - as far as the eye could see! What a rare sight, here in the great state of Kansas; usually, they are found in more temperate, coastal areas! I moved in to see if they were friendly.
"Hello?" |
This one seemed friendly enough, so I ...
Sniff... sniff... |
Well, sorry! I'm a puppy; it's what we do!
Cam checked out a sub-species of the Pink Flamingos -- a Purple Flamingo!
"This one must be a K-State fan!" |
We had to pass through them ...
"Just ... going ... slowly, Birdies! Don't be scared!" |
... and were able to do so without disturbing them. It was an experience of a lifetime!
What a crazy, rare sighting! We're so glad Mom took some photos so we could share it with all of you!
Yours sincerely,

Strange but brilliant photos!
ReplyDeleteWOW that is so so cool. When I showed MOM she laughed and laughed. Seems my MOM has been apart of this sort of flocking with her youth. Then the city said that they could not do such a thing. MOM tried to explain the importance of the whole bird migration thing, but they were not convinced. So now she does something with her youth and toilets!!! City seems fine with that. Go figure.
