• Flamencos-Flamingos

Laguna colorada

Es el sitio más importante para la observación de flamencos, donde se concentran tres especies:El Flamenco Chileno, El Flamenco Andino y La Parina Chica.Constituye un sitio de singular interés por la coloración de sus aguas, de un rojo intenso debido a los finos sedimentos de esa tonalidad depositados, y a pigmentos de algunos tipos de algas.
Bolivia.
¡Mejor ver en grande!.

Laguna Colorada (Red Lagoon) is a shallow salt lake in the southwest of the altiplano of Bolivia, within Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve and close to the border with Chile.

The lake contains borax islands, whose white color contrasts nicely with the reddish color of its waters, which is caused by red sediments and pigmentation of some algae.

Laguna Colorada is one of the Ramsar Wetlands of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention signed in 1971.

    Ya sé que haylos que incluso las prefieren así, pero... ¿cómo subes una foto tan ESPECTACULAR llena de manchas? Que se lo curre el experto que tienes by your side.

    Una pasada de sitio y de foto.

    ¡Ah! Y estoy de acuerdo con el crop que te sugiere hispics.
