Pink Menagerie

September is well on it's way to October; but that doesn't mean that it's too late to celebrate monthly specific special events like PINK FLAMINGO MONTH! That' right, I said Pink Flamingo Month! Being from Salt Lake this of course reminds me of our very own wild Flamingo, Floyd, who escaped from the Salt Lake City Tracy Aviary in 1988 and has since been living on his own on the shores of the Great Salt Lake where he continues his diet of brine shrimp to keep his feathers nice and pink! In the event you don't live in Salt Lake, someplace in Florida, or any other location where the pink flamingo is part of the local scenery, here are some ideas for Etsy merchandise to help you celebrate the existence of Floyd and all the other pink flamingos of the world.

Scenery is important, and not everybody wants a flock of plastic flamingos on their front lawn. Here is a flock of photographed flamingos arranged in mosaic form to create one of their own.
