Video by @bertiegregory // No matter how many times I saw it, a flamingo take off always made me chuckle. They're incredible goofy and clumsy as they desperately flap their wings and beat the water with their feet. I think this struggle to take to the air is also strangely beautiful! This clip in real life lasted just 6 seconds but shot at 180 frames per second, you're watching 6 times slow motion. Rio Lagartos, Mexico.
