Phoenicopterus chilensis
I went to TEMAIKEN and i found the flamencos
I believe that's not a Chilean Flamingo... I worked for one year at the National Zoo of Chile with that species. Maybe you are confused, because to me that's a Caribbean Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber ruber).
We have flamingos at our zoo too; both in the one in the city and at the Parque Lecocq; in case you didn´t know =)
Lovely spotting!! You get to really see the beautiful colour the flamingos have ! =)
By the way, in English, its name is "Flamingo" maybe you can change their name by clicking on "edit spotting" at the right of the picture; if you want to try it.
Greetings and lovely picture =)
