If you were flying over a body of water, looked down, and saw this,
you probably wouldn’t know what to think. Until you either flew a little
lower or got out some binoculars.
That’s exactly what happened
over Lake Nakura in Kenya. When looking closer and closer, the reality
of what was being seen was revealed. And it’s AWESOME.
It looks like a bubblegum-pink oil spill.
But, no, it doesn’t look quite right.
What you see is a colony of flamingos.
Granted, an overwhelmingly large colony.
And today I learned flamingos could probably take over the world.
What
you might not know about flamingos is that sometimes they gather in
colonies to sift for their favorite type of algae together in water. And
sometimes there can be thousands or
millions of these birds. Their sheer numbers will blow your mind.
