A Caribbean flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) stands gracefully on one leg in shallow water. Its vibrant pink plumage contrasts with its curved, white-tipped beak that has a black tip, characteristic of the species. The flamingo's long neck is elegantly curved, and its reflection shimmers on the water's surface. Other flamingos are partially visible in the background, emphasizing a natural habitat setting. This species is known for its striking coloration, which comes from carotenoid pigments in its diet.
