These large avian creatures are unlike the normal flamingo in that all of the colors of the rainbow are incorporated into their plumage. They are strong flyers, are non-aggressive, and will flee from danger. If cornered they can peck with their large beak for significant damage. These creatures are naturally magical and if their feathers are used as a spell component for the magic-user's fly spell, the spell duration will be measured in hours instead of turns.

Giant flamingos can speak the common language, but enjoy imitating the words of others more than they do conversing. They cannot be tamed but might trade information for food. They particularly enjoy shellfish, but will also eat meat, especially if it is cooked and spiced.
