whales are the evolutionary equivalent of pulling a u-turn on the freeway
>start evolutionary journey in The Ocean
>grow legs and learn to breathe air, leave The Ocean
>say nvm, go back to The Ocean, sometimes keep the hips? and they just. float there.
>continue needing to breathe air, which is in short supply in The Ocean, Where You Live, so you evolve to hold your breath really long, but you still have to come up for air
This black flamingo was spotted in Cyprus. It is just the second black flamingo ever seen. The first one was seen in Israel in 2014 but experts believe they may be the same bird, meaning that only one black flamingo has ever been seen. The black flamingo is affected with melanism, which is a condition caused by an overproduction of melanin, darkening the skin. An animal with melanism is a very rare sight.
