The Chilean flamingo is a bird with long legs, a long neck, and pink plumage. It lives on the shallows of salty lakes in South America and feeds using a special beak.
The Chilean flamingo differs from other flamingos by its gray legs with pink joints and a lighter pink color. It is important for nature because it filters lake water and serves as an indicator of their purity.
