It's been a banner year for this week's Bird of the Week! 🦩 Salmon-pink American Flamingos are some of the world's best-known and most beloved birds. The most colorful of the six flamingo species, it is popular in zoos, & you might see its likeness on everything from toys to casinos to lawn ornaments. Yet wild flamingos are a rare sight in the United States.
Much less so in 2023, it seems! This year, American Flamingos have been reported in no less than 14 states, many of which had no prior records for the species! At least 150 individuals turned up, even in such unlikely places as Kansas, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
Where did these birds come from, and why? Learn more about American Flamingos at bit.ly/3RYPUB8.
And don't miss our FREE webinar, Conserving Habitat for Displaced Water Birds, on October 25th! Register at bit.ly/3RUfiIl.

California Condors are very long-lived birds, surviving up to 60 years in the wild, which is not too far from the record held by the oldest known wild bird, a Laysan Albatross named Wisdom, which is at least 71 years old. Learn more here: abcbirds.org/bird/california-condor/
