Tablao

Zoo - Barcelona (Spain).

View Large On White

"Flamingo" in spanish is "flamenco", and a "tablao" is a flamenco show.

ENGLISH
The Caribbean Flamingo or American Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber is a large species of flamingo closely related to the Greater Flamingo and Chilean Flamingo, with which it is sometimes considered conspecific.

The Caribbean Flamingo breeds in the Galapagos Islands, coastal Colombia and Venezuela and nearby islands, the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, and in the northern Caribbean in the Bahamas, Hispaniola, Cuba and Turks and Caicos. Most sightings in southern Florida are usually considered to be escapees, although at least one bird banded as a chick in the Yucatán Peninsula has been sighted in Everglades National Park, and others may be genuine wanderers from Cuba.

Está especializada en alimentarse en lagos con grandes concentraciones salinas o alcalinas. Obtiene su alimento desde el sedimento limoso del fondo.
