Description
Species depicted: American/Caribbean flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber)
Location: Curacao, Seaquarium
Date: 16 march 2015
Tools of the trade: Nikon D90
A close up look at the flamingo's odd method of feeding. They do this upside down, using their specialised beak to filter the water for tiny little organisms. In this case there wasn't much food to be found in their main pool, though they were also fed tiny bits of fish in a big watery bowl a couple times a day - which everyone enthusiastically filter fed their way through.
