    Flamingos are a type of wading bird. There are four flamingo species in the Americas and two species in the Old World. Flamingos often stand on one leg, the other leg tucked beneath the body. The  reason for this behaviour is not fully understood. Recent research indicates that  standing on one leg may allow the birds to conserve more body heat, given that they spend a significant amount of time wading in cold water. However, the behaviour also takes place in warm water. As well as standing in the water, flamingos  may stamp their webbed feet in the mud to stir up food from the bottom.
