Flamingoes are my favorite in the bird park.  Their necks are long, and can be curled.  The size of a greater flamingo is about 120 - 140 cm, whereas a lesser flamingo is about 80 cm.

There are 2 areas in the bird park where the flamingoes can be found.  First at the Flamingo Pond (zone 2), second one at Waterfall Aviary (zone 4)

While resting, flamingoes stand on one foot, and their heads curled into their backs.

This is the Scarlet Ibis.  It is in red and can easily attract attention even from far away.

Freshwater birds usually have long necks, large bodies, long legs, strong and specialized bills. These adaptations make them well-suited to their wetland habitats. These birds eat fish, amphibians, and other small water creatures.

Cattle Egret has a yellow bill.

This is a Great White Pelican.  I guess it is the largest water bird in the park.  Its size is 160 cm.  Its bill, especially the lower bills is huge compared to other birds.  It has a cool hair style.

The pelicans stood on rocks looking at other birds and cleaning their feathers.  Look at the pelicans’ feet, they look like a duck’s feet.

This is the Black Swan.

This is the Yellow-Bill Stork.

This stork stood in the stream, and was eating a fish.  It looked lonely, because it did not want to share the food with his friends.

This is the stream at the Waterfall Aviary (zone 4).

This is another mini waterfall at the Flamingo Pond (zone 2).
