Description

Flamingos are social birds meaning they stick together in colonies or flocks. Flamingo flock sizes ranges from a few birds to a few hundred to tens of thousands of birds. The average flock size is roughly about 100 birds. Small flocks are rare because flock size is a big advantage flamingos have over predators. Flamingos in small flocks have a high chance of being successfully attacked by a predator. Because of varied diets among flamingo species, two or more species of flamingo can co-habituate in the same area. For example, the Lesser Flamingo prefers a diet of shrimp and algae.
