Greater Flamingo landing

A very colourful Flamingo, coming into land on the basin at Azaibah. The Flamingoes I usually see are not normally as mature as this beauty obviously is. This one is an adult Greater Flamingo. I couldn't include the pretty reflection on the water as this is a big crop, the bird is actually not quite ready to put those long pink feet down, it's no easy matter landing or taking off when you are as big and as long necked & legged as a Flamingo!
