A beautiful symbol of the Western Tropics!
Our Plastic FLamingo
Our realistic-looking plastic flamingo is a most gorgeous dark orange-pink with light pink (nearly white) plumage on the wings and a strikingly detailed face. The curved beak is typical of this bird, and the plastic base makes it stand upright very nicely on your table, shelf or classroom display. These small plastic flamingos (also spelled "flamingoes") are excellent for school projects such as dioramas, for collectors, and for gifts for your favorite flamingo collector. They would be beautiful on a wedding cake and would make fun favors at a party. Be sure to see our other flamingo toys and gifts.
About Flamingos
Although many of us associate flamingos with Florida in the US, they have an extremely wide range inhabited by a number of different species. Flamingoes can be found in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and on the Galapagos Islands (legally part of Ecuador, but located waaaaaaaaayyyyy out in the Pacific Ocean). They range from sea level to the high Andes. The informational tag that comes with this plastic pink flamingo tells us that its coloring comes from the algae and insects that are a part of its diet.

It seems that in these parts the pink flamingo has become associated with the fight against breast cancer. A number of homes in our community have "life-size" flamingos in their front yards.
Nice to hear from you. I would like to be back in Paris, also. But I'm afraid I might be getting to old to make another trip!
Hope you're doing well!
