Название: The Red Lagoon (Laguna Colorada) at 4,278m. (14,035 ft.), Altiplanos Bolivianos (Bolivian Highlands), Potosí, Bolivia. We arrived at Laguna Colorada already at sunset, so the waters are not as red as they usually are, they tell us. Even so, we caught thousands of flamingos, well merry, eating at the edge of the pond. It's a wonderful image. We spent more than an hour wandering around the side, photographing the flamingos, listening to the Andean wind, or, standing there, just looking! According to Poli, our coveted guide, the reddish color of the lagoon is due to sediments deposited by a kind of seaweed. He also told us that flamingos feeding on these waters will also get a reddish hue, since when they are born they are grayish. And speaking of flamingos, from the photos you can see that they abound here. There are James Flamingos, Andean flamingos and Chilean flamingos. The color of the pond looks more brick color than bright red, alive as the red of many photos that circulate on the net. The end of day light also does not help anything besides the rains and snow in the summer! There is a bit of disappointment in our countenance. The lagoon contains some islands of borax salt, whose white color contrasts with the reddish color of the waters. Laguna Colorada is one of the Wetlands of International Importance of the Ramsar Convention.
