Lesser Flamingoes

Phoenicopterus minor

Description:

Most of the plumage is pinkish white. The clearest difference between this species and the Greater Flamingo, the only other Old World species of flamingo, is the much more extensive black on the bill. Size is less helpful unless the species are together, since the sexes of each species also differ in height.

Habitat:

Sewri mudbanks
