Raiders: In fact, to really see flamingos, you have to go to Lake Bogoria instead of Lake Nakuru, where there are more birds. If you only go to Nakuru, it is recommended to choose the afternoon as much as possible, because the morning photo backlight.
In the 1970s, a movie called "The Pink Flamingo" was immediately named "the most obscene and disgusting film ever made" after the midnight show in an adult theater, and won the title of the highest-grossing low-budget independent film, and was even collected by the Museum of Modern Art in New York as a classic of "American Comedy Films". The film was directed by John. Waters was only 26 years old at the time, and was a rebellious icon of American underground movies in the minds of those boring teenagers, and was defeated by the Big Guy William. Burrows was nicknamed "Our Trash Pope". Distinguished from those warm-hearted American factions, John. Waters' films punctured the scars of the entire mild-mannered and conservative seventies. For people who have been soaking in sweet smooth images for a long time, John. Waters is simply a demon, he adheres to the concept of how disgusting and how to come, mercilessly throws away everything that can be used for the little intellectual to be obscene, nakedly presents all the absurd and perverted things in front of your eyes, so that you can see the back of the stomach spasm and almost want to vomit.
When a person is mentally numb, perhaps only the pleasure or pain of the flesh can awaken the little truth in your deepest heart. "Pink Flamingo" Plot Simple Story Can Be Called the Representative of the Three Vulgar, John . Waters, a skinny man with a ghostly smile, hides behind the camera and directs one prank after another, leading the craziest brains to play happily on the edge of hellish sin.
He is using almost perverted pictures to force you to face the cruel and absurd life.
Today, too, we will tell the story of the flamingo. Before listening to the story, forget about the movies mentioned above. The world is perverted enough, and we need something beautiful to nourish our eyes and our souls.
When it comes to East Africa, I believe that many people will think of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa at the first time, the biggest scar on the earth stretches more than 5,000 kilometers from the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro through more than 10 countries in Africa, and the total area of the Rift Valley is more than 5 million square kilometers, accounting for one-sixth of the entire African area. Everything in the world has yin and yang to be harmonious, there must be a rise and a fall to balance, China's house prices can not only rise and fall, the stock index crazy to 6000 points still have to return to below 2000 (this is the emperor children's shoes in 2009 said, unfortunately, all fulfilled one by one). The land of suffering is bound to blossom with gorgeous flowers, and the Great Rift Valley looks flat but has the most beautiful lakes, one of which is Lake Nakuru in Kenya.
On the second day of arriving in Nakuru, we got up at 5:30 a.m., had breakfast at 6 a.m., and headed straight for Lake Nakuru.
After passing through a dense forest, the vast water of the lake suddenly appears in front of you. The blue was ethereal and distant because of the morning fog; the golden light of the rising sun was thrown through the clouds on the surface of the lake, and the ripples were scattered with gold; a golden tree stood alone on the shore of the lake, lonely.
The golden light of the rising sun shines through the clouds on the surface of the lake, and the ripples are broken into gold; a golden tree stands alone on the shore of the lake, lonely.
In the distance, there was a touch of pink with fried eyes.
Flamingos love to live in groups. A group of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. They swim in the shallow waters of the lake, wandering on the banks of the fertile water plants, strolling around and playing with each other.
Because of the drastic changes in the earth's crust, the earth was torn apart by a wound, and the earth's blood veins surged to the bottom of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa, and finally merged into a volcanic lake with no exit. At the same time, lava ash formed by volcanic eruptions flows into the lake through rainwater, causing the continuous deposition of saline alkali in the lake water over the years, which eventually forms the most suitable soil for algae growth under the strong sunlight on the equatorial line. In Kenya's six rift valley saltwater lakes, Lake Nakuru and Lake Nathron, a dark green spirulina grows, where a flamingo can smoke about half a kilogram of spirulina a day, which contains a special type of lumein in addition to a large amount of protein. The pink color of the flamingo's entire body is the result of this pigment action.
There are birds where there are lakes, which is not surprising. Birds have changed their original color because of the lake, which is a spectacle!
Lake Nakuru is a bird paradise, home to more than 400 species of birds. Among the many rare birds, the flamingo is the most famous. At its peak, the number of flamingos here was said to be more than 2 million!!!
One-third of the world's total number of flamingos!
The English name of the flamingo is transliterated as "flamenco", yes, the name of the dance that is full of enthusiasm and heat. This shows the strong sense of existence of its image. The flamingos, also known as the Flamingo, are three genera and five species: the Great Flamingo, the Small Flamingo, the Chilean Flamingo, the Andean Flamingo and the James Flamingo. There are two kinds of flamingos in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa: large and small. The large flamingo can reach a height of up to 150 cm, the hae is pale pink, the tip of the long beak is black, the number of this flamingo is small, the vast majority of people see the small flamingo, the small flamingo is about 90 cm tall, the hagoromo tone is darker, the beak is dark red, and the whole body is brightly colored.
What a brilliant color! What a beautiful shape. The village woman shouted: I will also wear a colorful dress and dance!
In order to adapt to the living conditions of feeding on algae, flamingos have an extremely chic long beak. The long beak is curved flat and downwards, and the tip is hook-shaped. Whenever they go to the shoals to feed, the flamingos bury their heads in the water and stir in the water with their long beaks. In this way, the organic matter in the water, especially those algae plankton, will float to the surface, and the flamingo will take the opportunity to swallow a brain, and then use the thin sieve-shaped filter plate in the mouth to filter the spirulina out of the muddy water and swallow it.
Flamingos are the only birds in nature that feed through a filtration device.
Because of the presence of flamingos, there are always red strips floating on the surface of Lake Nakuru, like falling water, like a blue pool in the morning sun.
Looking at the flamingos from a distance, they are dressed in pink feathers, but up close they are different shades and colors, the slender long legs stand leisurely and upright, proud and graceful, inadvertently the wings are lightly schuman trembling, and the lake surface suddenly ripples red.
Flamingos like to live in groups, and there are often tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, in a flock. They swim in the shallow waters of the lake, wandering on the banks of the fertile water plants, strolling around and playing with each other.
The rise of play, the wings stretched out, lined up in a strict square, dancing. Suddenly, the lake light and birds and shadows, reflecting each other, like a thousand trees and peach blossoms stirring a pool of spring water, spring light suddenly appeared, unstoppable, creating a sea of flames steaming fire, thus being called "the world's never extinguished fire", attracting countless tourists to bend their waists every year.
Nakuru has also earned it the nickname "the most beautiful lake in the world" for its flamingos.
Some people say that the flamingo is a sacred bird, which contains infinite energy in the body, and dancing and vacating is to vent excess energy.
Some people say that dancing is to express the joy of the collective, and vacating is to show the talents of the individual.
It is also said that the flamingo, like the legendary phoenix, was reborn from the ashes after being burned by fire. The collective dance is a reliving of the scene of the burning fire, and the group taking off is the embodiment of the immortal will. Because of this, flamingos are revered by the locals as proficient in human nature.
But in fact, if the beautiful flamingo wants to fight in the long sky, it must run wildly for a while beforehand to get the power it needs to take off.
Flamingos' courtship activities are spectacular, but only once a year, and it is rare to see each other. It is said that whenever it is time for courtship, the flock of birds, instead of the serene state of the swim, raises their heads and collides with each other, emitting a series of cracked low cries. The male chases the female, while the female pretends to dodge and spreads her wings to escape. Repeatedly, the female ends up lying in the shallow water in a shy position, while the male spreads her wings and swoops onto her neck.
Suddenly, the sky was spinning, and the entertainers tried their best to vent their joy, while the onlookers shouted and cheered.
The scene was both fiery and fierce.
I'm not hot, I'm not fierce. So I chose to hide and hide for pleasure.
Without black, how can there be white sanctity?
I heard that you are the emperor of the rat world, so let's give you a face and write a close-up.
I'll give you a great job, don't miss it.
In fact, beauty is colorful. Don't believe me.
We are practicing a cappella mix chorus, sound is very important, don't pay too much attention to lip synchronicity.
The threesome will have my teacher, and the three birds fly in different postures.
How to act without escorts when the army moves?
Each leads the way, especially charming.
Let the silly hats go, even if it is spirulina.
Here I come.
Final sprint.
