They say 'fake it until you make it', but just how far would you go? These ducks-turned-flamingos are proof you can be whoever you want to! As one commenter put it, 'If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a flamingo'… So take it as a lesson, and don't let anyone tell you you're a duck!

Actually, this is what most water fowls do – they stand on one leg to regulate their body temperature. That means if they get cold they hold one leg closer to their body to warm it up and then switch legs.

 

Still, we must admit these images of duck flamingos are pretty FLAM-boyant, don't you think?
