Better Than Human
Fascinating Flamingos: the Birds That Turn Pink Because of Algae
Show Notes

Flamingos: you’ve probably seen one, either in the wild or at a zoo. Fun to look at but not that interesting, right? Wrong! Flamingos, known for their pink feathers and standing on one foot, are a very delightful  group of birds, who happen to be more closely related to doves than water fowl. 

First we talk #LGBTQIA in professional sports, specifically Carl Nassib who has become the first active NFL player to come out as gay. We have come a long way,  but hopefully soon we will come to a day when an LGBTQIA player is so common it isn’t newsworthy. 

Talking about LGBTQIA, did you know that some Flamingos form homosexual pairs that have been known to mate, build nests, and even raise chicks together? They have even been known to form polyamorous partnerships. 

Listen as we answer some of Google's most asked questions about Flamingoes (like can they be blue) and learn about the fascinating Flamingos.
