Hey, it's a giant pink bird!
Who are you?
I'm a flamingo.
Flamingos are waders.
Those are birds that stay near shallow water.
Where do you live?
We live all over the world.
We like lakes, ponds, and oceans.
Do you live alone?
Nope.
Flamingos live together in big groups.
Wow! You can stand on one leg!
Yes, we stand on one leg to rest.
And we stand on two legs to eat.
What do you eat?
We like snails, plants, and fish.
We also eat lots of shrimp.
Their pink color makes our feathers turn pink!
Your neck is so long!
Our long neck helps us to fish.
And our bill is like a shovel.
We use it to scoop up food.
Can you swim?
Oh yes, we can swim.
We have webbed feet.
We can also run on the water.
And fly into the sky!
Good-bye, Flamingo!
