Standing on one leg
with their necks neatly knotted,
flamingoes resting.
Sleepy heads lay on their backs,
feathered wings, feathered pillows.

So interesting to see a flock. And then you walk in the neighborhood and see their gaudy replicas. I actually saw one the other day that looked quite realistic. But of course they are not native where I am.
They are native here Jules, I was at a nature reserve where they have a collection of waterfowl. Thanks for reading and commenting.
