South American Saturday: Flamingos at Laguna Kara, Bolivia

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

The "volcano flamingos" enjoy the rough conditions of the Bolivian Altiplano that keep them safe from predators. Hundreds of them were gathering at Laguna Kara in front of the snow peaked Andean volcanoes.

No words to describe.Technique and eye – great!

Außergewöhnliche Szenerie. Man lönnte fast denken, dass die Flamingos nicht in diese Landschaft passen.

Absolut, die Mondlandschaft in Südbolivien ist ziemlich tot, bis auf ein paar Llamas und tausende Flamingos 😀

Muss ich mal besichtigen, wenn ich Gelegenheit dazu habe.
