I thought they were more pink than orange ? maybe not. Anyway,the colors are nice and bright, focus isn't real sharp, and the composition is not real appealing with the other bird right behind him.
Vibrant color! These guys are fascinating to watch and very pretty to photograph. Unfortunately, the grate doesn't lend a lot to the composition. Sometimes it's hard to avoid stuff like this but keep trying different angles if you can.
You picked a flamingo with nice patterns in his back and tail feathers. Good detail on the bird, but the orange in the background is not setting him off as well as it could; I might try some desaturation on the background to show him off better.
