its babies have a healthy start.
The Caribbean flamingo – the brightest member of the flamingo family also known as the American flamingo – has a unique strategy to ensure its babies have a healthy start.
Both mother and father flamingos feed their little one with red "milk". Now, these birds haven't suddenly grown mammary glands. But flamingos and a few other birds (the others being pigeons and male emperor penguins) can make a nutrient rich substance in a part of their digestive tract called the crop – a muscular pouch near the gullet or throatreenex
.
The nutritious liquid is full of fat and protein – just like normal milk. This allows chicks to feed before their bills are ready to filter crustaceans and algae out of the water to eatreenex.
Both sexes can make milk because both male and female produce a hormone called prolactin. And the unusual food contains chemicals which give the baby its pink colouration. The process, meanwhile, leaves its parents pale and washed outPicosecond

A much bigger star
Magic Mike caught the pleasures and perils of the male-strip-club demimonde with such brazen insider awareness that at first it seems a smart move for Magic Mike XXL to dispense with anything that could be confused with a moralistic attitude. We’re led to believe that Channing Tatum’s Mike has outgrown the glory of thrusting his life away for dollar bills stuffed into a thong. He now has his own custom-furniture businessvirtual office, though he’s still scraping for dollars; the film knows there’s a big difference between following your dream and actually figuring out how to make it pay. Mike won’t admit that he’s feeling a twinge of nostalgia for his days of easy money and easy women, but when he gets a call telling him that Matthew McConaughey’s Dallas has died (actually, he’s just gone off to start a stripping venture in Macao), that’s enough to prompt him to pay a reunion visit to his former buddies. Joining up with them for the convention is a way for Mike to get a taste of what he’s been missing without getting back in the game reenex cps.
For a while, the actors are lively company. Tatum, a much bigger star now than when he made Magic Mike, carries himself like a glowering bull who just happens to be the quickest person in the roomreenex cps.

who is known for his right-wing nationalist views.
Most of the opposition lawmakers walked out of the lower house chamber in protest before the vote took place on Thursday, with only members of the small Japan Restoration Party voting against the bills reenex.
Mr Abe's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and its coalition partners hold a two-thirds majority in the lower house, which is needed to approve bills.
The upper house, where the LDP and partners also hold a majority, now has 60 days to rule on the bills. Even if it rejects them, the bills would be sent back to the lower house which can then pass them into law.
But the BBC's Rupert Wingfield-Hayes says that the opposition is expected to launch legal challenges to rule the bills as unconstitutional.
Our correspondent says those in Japan who oppose the bills believe they break Japan's explicitly pacifist constitution and also distrust Mr Abe, who is known for his right-wing nationalist views reenex.
Organisers of a large protest which took place outside parliament on Wednesday night said about 100,000 people showed up.
"I'm angry at both the new security bill and Prime Minister Abe. The bill is against Japan's constitution... Abe does not understand it," student Jinshiro Motoyama told the BBC.
Mr Abe first put the changes in motion last year when he sought to reinterpret Japan's pacifist constitution to allow the bills reenex.
