Graceful, elegant and decked out in colorful plumage-rarely does a bird mesmerize us as much as the flamingo. And only few people can bring us as close to this creature as Claudio Contreras Koob. A biologist and photographer, he has had a special relationship with the flamingos of his native Mexico since childhood. In this book, Koob presents more than 120 stunning photographs of life in a flamingo colony, from wonderfully close-up views of their plumage to aerial views that reveal the sheer magnitude of the bird's population. The fascinating coloring of these creatures, from delicate shades of cream, pink, and ochre to deep orange-red, along with Claudio Contreras Koob's unerring imagery make this book both an informative and aesthetic delight.
