I am not a wildlife photographer. It is not in my nature. But, I could not help photographing some of the beautiful animals in the Wildlife Preserve at the Flamingo Hotel. There are different kinds of unusual animals here including several different species of birds. Obviously, there are many Flamingos. The beautiful fish in the man-made stream are also worth a look.
The photo here shows a Grey Crowned Crane, a native of the African Savannah, south of the Sahara Desert. It also happens to be the National Bird of Uganda (no Idi Amine jokes here please). I can tell you from experience, it loves to pose for cameras.
If you are ever in Vegas and want to do something different, stop by and take a look at all the animals and wander around the beautiful grounds. There is even a restaurant with large windows right next to the preserve so you can enjoy the view while eating (please don’t order fowl…it would be sacrilegious and scares the animals).
