Flamingo Freedom
Dozens of the nearly 500 flamingo chicks rescued after they were abandoned by their mothers in January are being returned to the wild by a nationwide network of South African volunteers.
The chicks, then too young to fly, had been stranded after a severe regional drought dried up their habit, leaving their mothers unable to care for them. About 100 of the birds are expected to be resettled during the first week in May.
Private pilots along with hundreds of volunteers and donors have helped in the rescue.
