No, inferences are conclusions drawn based on observed evidence or facts. Without making observations first, there is no basis to draw logical conclusions or make accurate inferences. Observations provide the necessary information to make sense of a situation and draw meaningful conclusions.
"Greater flamingo" is the common name for the species Phoenicopterus roseus.
Originally, these birds were also known by the name Phoenicopterus antiquorum, reflecting the fact that they are both an Old World species and one of the earliest known to Western scientists.
They have also previously been classified as one of two subspecies of Phoenicopterus ruber--one being the New World species Phoenicopterus ruber ruber, or the Caribbean flamingo, and the other being Phoenicopterus ruber roseus,or the greater flamingo. However, later taxonomic work revealed that there were enough differences between these two "subspecies" to merit considering them distinct species.

they don't turn green cause of the amount of algae they eat.they eat more shrimp than algae.
Flamingos eat small insects, plankton, tiny fish, algae, crustaceans, and fly larve using their bills. When and how much food they eat is dependent upon what species of flamingo they are and they type of filtration system in their bill.
A wading bird is any of a group of long-legged birds, such as cranes, herons or storks, which wade in shallow water in search of food.
Wading birds, such as herons, usually have three toes forward and one behind, all long to support them on soft surfaces. Flamingoes, however, have a very small first rear toe, with three toes forward, webbed for swimming, that are not so long as most wading birds. What we see as the foot is only the toes. What we see as the lower leg bone is really the foot fused into a single bone, with a prominent heel joint that looks to us like a knee that bends backwards. Bird toes are as different as bird species, and fit their lifestyle. Most birds have one toe behind and maybe above, with three forward. Some birds have two forward and two behind, some have a toe that can shift from front to back, a few birds have only three toes forward; the Ostrich has only two toes forward.
It was adopted as Florida's state animal in 1982 by a vote of students through out the state of Florida.
1. In winter, the northernmost colonies of greater flamingos in Asia will migrate south to the warmer coastal areas of Iran and India. Most other colonies will over winter if the weather stays mild. But these birds will move on if the weather turns bad.
Flamingoes live in lakes swamps and seas. Some of the countries they live in are tropical and subtropical parts of South America, especially Chile, Peru, Argentina, and southern Brazil.

Flamingos choose regions that have little food for other animals and avoid having many natural predators. They can be the target of large birds that move from place to place. Grown flamingos are not the target but the chicks are vulnerable and the parents must protect them and kept them close by.

yes you can eat the flamigo, we eat it on a regular basis here in the UAE, there are a number of excellent outlets here that specialise in the delights of the flamigo. the flamigo meat, especially from just under the wing is very pork like, which has a captive market here. ask your local butcher for a flamigo, it isn't a very popular bird in most of the world but i believe it is readily available these days and can be sourced without too much difficulty. favourite flamigo dishes would be flamigo fajita, flamigo paste, crispy flamigo and smoked flamigo.
