For example. Why are flamingos pink? I have never asked myself this question (and didn't know). They're pink from their diet! They eat foods high in beta carotene, mostly shrimp and algae. Fun fact!
Good to know! Hope you're doing well! Sorry, I have not been online much lately!
ReplyDeleteI didnt know that! BUT my question would be....Why the heck am I not here ALL the time?
ReplyDeleteActually, I did know that....unfortunately we don't see flamingos around SW Florida except at the zoo!
