That would make it so much easier if they did that.

Which birds did that?

No, it is a smaller but it's still a big bird.

Like all flamingos are large.

There's six species of flamingo in the world.

And they're all big and they're all pink.

The main difference, though, apart from the size, is that it has an all-dark beak and a dark sort of area around its eyes.

So if you get a good view of the flamingo's head, it's easy to tell them.

Unfortunately, they spend a lot of their time with their head tucked under their wings.

Or stuck in the muck.

Stuck in the muck, yeah.

To see them there was amazing.

And also, Derek, just the soundscape there, because it's a little further ahead of us in the bird breeding season, there's so many different bird songs.

The dawn chorus is just remarkable down there in the middle of April.

And there's this bird in the Camargue here everywhere now called Chetty's warbler, which is a species that seems to be doing very well for climate change.

And it's actually a species that is slowly but surely colonising Ireland.

So there's a chance we could actually get it in our live dawn chorus programme on the 3rd of May.

It's a species that we know is now breeding in places like Broadratt Charlands East Coast Nature Reserve in County Wicklow.

It's breeding in Cahor Marsh in County Wexford and other locations around the country too.

And it may be that people don't know what it sounds like or don't know what they're hearing.
