Here are some flamingoes in Lake Hedionda in the highlands of Bolivia. I always thought of flamingoes as tropical birds and was stunned to see them in this partially frozen lake at over 4000 meters above sea level.

This is a wonderful photo. I really love it!!

Love the color combination! Surely these animals must have evolved to adapt up there!

Yeah, I don't know how they do it. The temperature was something like -20 at night while we were there and it didn't seem to bother them at all.
