Birds of Kentucky: American Flamingo in Kentucky
2023-09-17 - Warsaw, KY - Photo by Pen
The American Flamingo that has been observed on the shores of the Ohio River in Gallatin County, Kentucky, for about a week. Experts think it is among the flamingos displaced by Hurricane Idalia, who were caught in the storm while enroute to Cuba, and carried until the storm's landfall in the United States.
I included 2 different poses to show that it did indeed move, although it was unbothered by barge and pontoon traffic. The bird was in Kentucky, but observation has been from across the river just outside of Patriot, Indiana.
