Pictures: The lesser flamingos of Disney's Animal Kingdom
Lesser flamingos display early courtship behavior in the colony located at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Thursday, March 23, 2023. Park animal keepers have come up with a novel approach to encouraging nesting and increase the number of chicks hatched in the habitat by importing orange clay from the nearby baseball diamond at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. In the wild, lesser flamingos —smaller than their Caribbean and American cousins— live in sub-Saharan Africa and western India. (Joe Burbank/Orlando Sentinel)
