Flamingo Brooch | Trovelore

The name "flamingo" comes from the Spanish word "flamenco," meaning flame. The birds' pink or orange color is derived from pigments in their diet of shrimp, algae, and crustaceans. Often found standing on one leg to conserve body heat, flamingos spend most of their time cleaning their feathers with a special oil spread by their beaks. These beautiful birds are a sight to behold in flight and symbolize beauty and relaxation.
