Therefore, the bird's body is likely to be saline or alkaline. Flamingos do not normally migrate, but changes in climate or water levels in their breeding areas will cause them to relocate.
The levels of carotenoids (organic pigments) in their food vary in different regions of the world, which is why American flamingos are often bright red and orange, while The lesser cranes of drought-stricken Lake Nakuru in central Kenya have a lighter pink color. If a flamingo stops eating food containing carotenoids, its new feathers will begin to grow in a much lighter color, and its red feathers will eventually fall out.

To eat, flamingos will stir up the bottom of the lake with their feet and drop their beaks into the mud and water to find food.
