If I could be an animal, I would be a...
Flamingo!
If I could be any animal I would love to be a flamingo! Growing up I have always been rather fascinated with them (I think this is probably because I have always loved the colour pink.) I remember first seeing them in Florida at Walt Disney World when I was 8 and I thought they were so beautiful. I love how eye catching they are with their gorgeous pink feathers that sometimes have a bright shade of orange in them and then the odd mixture of white.
I don't consider myself to be a very graceful person, but a flamingo is so elegentally graceful in the way they carry themselves. Flamingo's tend to gather in a group most of the time and stand in water (as pictured above.) I think as a group they look so calm and relaxed and I'm someone who loves water too. Flamingo's can be found in warm and cooler climates which is perfect for me. I also like the idea of being able to be free and fly wherever i'd like.
I also love flaming's long necks and how they use them to lean on their back to go sleep. I like animals that have something a little different which makes them unique, and the flamingo will stand in water on just one leg, yet again looking so poised and graceful. I find them to be a very peaceful and beautiful species of animal.
