There are many famous pink lakes in the world, except for the Las Coloradas in Yucatan, Pink Lake in Australia, Koyashskoye in Crimea, etc. They are almost all of them salt lakes. It is because of the high salt content that many red algae grow, so that the lake looks like a unique pink effect.
Where there is a pink lake, there are often flamingos, because the algae and plankton in the salt lakes are their main source of food. The astaxanthin produced by these foods, after being decomposed by the flamingo's stomach fluid, will show the color of the shrimp after cooking, which is why the flamingo is red.
The flamingos here are still very comfortable, can be seen from a bright red feather. Although the Caribbean red dragonfly to which they belong is itself the darkest of the flamingos.
