In a desert

Lesser flamingo (Phoenicoparrus minor)

Namibia

This is the second of two species of flamingo seen in Namibia - the other species is the greater flamingo which has a dark tip on a pink beak.

I found large groups of flamingos wading in the brackish waters among the sand dunes inland from the Atlantic coast. It is separated from the coast with kilometers of desert, which makes it appear like a true oasis.20181011-DSC_9760-1a-3.1.jpg
