Why I like flamingos

_________________________________________

I like flamingos because they are cute, pink, fluffy birds and there are luckily about two million flamingos left in the wild. Sadly there are more plastic flamingos in the world than real ones but to help this we can stop global warming and climate change by walking to school more often and using electric cars so flamingos don't have to walk miles and miles just to find water. Hopefully then it will stop evaporating.

Adult flamingos are four to five feet tall and live in lagoons or large, shallow lakes .They are found in south America and they can also live in parts of Africa. Flamingos are pink because of the food they eat. They eat blue ,red and green algae, mollusks ,crustaceans and sea fish such as pink shrimp.
