VISITORS to a wildlife attraction learned all about with flamingos at the weekend.
The Wildlife and Wetlands Trust, in Washington, held a Flamingo Festival, which included talks taking place next to the flamingos, and children's activities were held with the birds as their focus.
A trust spokesman said: "Flamingos are one of the most unusual birds in the world, and the flock of Chilean flamingos at WWT Washington is one of the centre's most popular attractions. Chilean flamingos first arrived at Washington in 1986 and, with five successful breeding seasons, the flock has now grown to over 40 birds.
