They eat the small shrimp in the salt lakes and that's why they're pink, the shrimp they eat makes them pink There's quite a salt farming operations there.

You know how they say, "You are what you eat.", well the flamingos certainly are since they're pink because of the shrimp! ☺️ I appreciate the salt farming picture, and I looked up what salt farming was. Very interesting!
