Tickled pink at rare flamingo chick
A rare chick hatched on Thursday, 21 July at the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust in Llanelli - only the second one to be hatched in captivity in the UK.
The first lesser flamingo chick to be hatched in captivity was at Slimbridge, Gloucestershire in July 2006.
The egg was actually incubated by to improve its chances of survival. The flock actually form a creche to care for their young, so the new arrival will receive better care staying with the Caribbean flock.
