In September, Hurricane Idalia blew dozens of American Flamingos into Florida and across the eastern half of the U.S. In February, a research team wants to see how many have remained in the Sunshine State and is calling all interested Floridians to report the flamingos they see from February 18 through February 25, 2024. This effort is being coordinated through the Florida Flamingo Working Group and is part of a larger effort being coordinated by the Caribbean Flamingo Conservation Group to census all American Flamingos throughout their range during this week.
