- Description
-
An American flamingo stands on the shore of a body of water. Its head is lowered and hovers just above its left foot. The silhouettes of several flamingoes are in the water in the background. Most of the print is in a shade of dark pink, though a large globe is in the sky in the background. The globe is teal, maroon, and yellow and looks like a planet. At the very bottom of this globe, it appears that the colors of the globe are dripping, implying that there is some sort of meltdown. The scientific name for the birds is printed below the image: "Phoenicopterus ruber".
