Pink flamingos are found wild in Provence, France which is a fantastic region for bird watching.
The Rhone delta is a massive area of flat land right in the middle of the south of France and as the mighty river Rhone approaches the Mediterranean it generates large areas of wetlands frequented by a wide variety of wildlife.
The Camargue is the area with the majority of the pink flamingo flocks in the south of France, here they are very carefully monitored and cared for, they thrive of the vast salt flats of the area.
The Presque isle de Hyeres is another area where you will find significant numbers of these big gangly birds roaming wild, again attracted to the shallow, salty waters.
The Provence region is rich from a nature point of view, the varied geology and warm temperatures gives rises to a rich collection of flora and fauna.
