Yes we have Caribbean flamingos in Greensboro. If you have been to the Greensboro Science Center lately, you have probably seen this exhibit. The Caribbean flamingo is native to not only the Caribbean, but also South America and the Galápagos Islands. These interesting creatures are approximately 5' tall and weigh between 4-9 pounds. They can live up to 50 years. They usually only lay one egg at a time and it takes close to 30 days to hatch. The birds can be hard to get them to the point where they warm up to their keeper. However, the ones at the science center seem relatively settled in. It is fun to watch them eat and to interact with each other.
We hope you have been safe during the recent storms, and, that you get a chance to visit the Greensboro Science Center soon! Have a great rest of your day!
Happy Wednesday!
All feathers if they're that tall and only weigh that much.
