The Andean flamingo (Phoenicoparrus andinus) is a species of flamingo and one of the rarest of its type in the world. It lives in the Andes mountains of South America. Until 2014, it was classified in genus Phoenicopterus. It is closely related to James’s flamingo, and the two make up the genus Phoenicoparrus. The Chilean flamingo, Andean flamingo, and James’ flamingo are all sympatric, and all live in colonies (including shared nesting areas). These flamingos are filter feeders and their diet ranges over the entire spectrum of available foods, from fish to invertebrates, from vascular plants to microscopic algae. This Andean flamingo is native to the wetlands of the high Andes mountain range from southern Peru to northwestern Argentina and northern Chile. Andean flamingos are migratory, with the ability to travel up to 700 miles in one day. In the summer, they live in salt lakes, and migrate to the lower wetlands for the winter. Full HD.
