The flamingo is a large bird with extremely long legs and a long neck. Its body can range in color from
pale pink to vibrant red. Caribbean flamingos are physically suited to the special environments found in
saline or alkaline lakes, and live in salt lakes and mudflats of Africa, southern Europe, and Central and
South America in groups of as many as several thousand or even a million birds. Parent flamingos
produce "flamingo milk", a red liquid, in the back of their throats, which they use to feed their young.
With this paper craft, you can make Caribbean flamingos in three different poses. Arrange them
however you like and decorate your room!
