Andean flamingoes in Laguna Chaxa (PiP)

Andean flamingoes in Laguna Chaxa (PiP)
Laguna Chaxa is one of the main breeding grounds of the endangered Andean flamingo which is easy to recognize by its yellow legs and black tail tip. Other birds like Andean avocet and Baird's sandpiper can also be watched in the shallow saline lake. See inset photos!

Laguna Chaxa íst eines der Hauptbrutgebiete für den Andenflamingo, der leicht an seinen gelben Beinen und der schwarzen Flügelspitze erkennbar ist. Auch andere Vögel wie Anden-Säbelschnäbler und Baird-Strandläufer können in dem flachen Salzsee beobachtet werden (siehe PiPs).

A lovely series. I am surprised by how clear the water is, I wouldn't expect that.

Thanks a lot, Diane! The air in the desert is very clear, no pollution, and the salts in the water are all dissolved, that must be the reason.
