Flamingoes – Wall Murals

Flamingoes are the truly exotic choice for wall murals. These wading birds get their name from the Spanish word for 'flame-coloured', and a flock of them is an awe-inspiring sight. The plumage colour of these highly social birds varies according to the amount of carotene in their diet and the darker they are, the more desirable they are to potential mates. Many mate for life. Flamingoes have a habit of standing on one leg; scientists have yet to discover why. Choose one of these brilliantly coloured photographs or patterns for a wallpaper.
