[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Great flamingo is the largest species of flamingo, averaging 110-150 cm (43-60 in) tall and weighing 2–4 kg (4.4-8.8 lbs). The largest male flamingoes have been recorded at up to 187 cm (74 in) tall and 4.5 kg (10 lbs). Like all flamingos, this species lays a single chalky-white egg on a mud mound.

Most of the plumage is pinkish-white, but the wing coverts are red and the primary and secondary flight feathers are black.

The bill is pink with a restricted black tip, and the legs are entirely pink. The call is a goose-like honking.

Selamlar barış bey,

çok güzel bir kompozisyon.

Hi Baris,
You should repost this making full use of the 300KB we are allowed. You compressed it to 28 KB and all details are gone. The jpg artefacts are enormous and we can't appreciate the quality of your work.
