Flamingo Lingo.

The unique pink of a flamingo comes from their diet of algae and shrimp with high levels of Carotenoid (gives carrots their orange hue) and effervesces red pigments after digestion.

Likewise, people come in 50 shades of grey. Some lighter, some darker.
This comes from their diet of  knowledge, choice, opportunity and some say, life experience.
Alas, most people come only with one wing and most need to unify themselves with others before they fly right.
Some just prefer flapping harder alone, and hey, that works too.
(its flapping not fapping - get your mind out of the gutter!)

Which shade of grey pink makes you fly? And if you fly solo, how much harder is it?

It is not known why flamingos stand on one leg.
It is thought to be the conservation of body heat in colder, deeper waters.
Apart from preventing muscle fatigue by alternation,
it also appears to bring some comfort during resting positions.

When it gets warmer, more are observed to stand on both legs.
But as it gets colder, more prefer using only one leg.

Well, sometimes I'm like that too.
Its just naturally more comfortable that way.
But i'm not withdrawing to conserve sanity and love for myself.
If you must know, its conserved for other flamingos I know.
