Great Lake Preserve
Bahamas
When the massive flock of bright pink Caribbean Flamingos take flight from their home in the Great Lake Preserve, they resemble a majestic, pink cloud moving over the land.
After a moment's observation, it's no wonder why these creatures are the national bird of the Bahamas; their beauty is unmatched.
The birds once made their home on all islands of the Bahamas but the Great Lake Preserve at the center of San Salvador hosts one of the largest remaining flocks in the Bahamas. These beautiful birds mate and nest in the spring and lay only one egg each year.
Consuming a diet consisting of the Great Lake Preserve's brine shrimp helps to maintain their dazzling pink color. The lake hosts other amazing avian species who make this salty world their home. Bird watchers can delight in spotting roseate spoonbills, herons, egrets,the Bahama Parrot, and hummingbirds. Observing these gorgeous creatures take flight is a sight to behold.
