== Behavior == Chilean flamingos are very social birds who frequently communicate and live together in flocks that can reach tens of thousands of individuals. The flamingos communicate through vocalizations and body movements. Vocalizations are used for mid-flight communication and include honking, grunting, or howling goose-like calls. Each flamingo has a unique call and a flamingo can recognize the call of its offspring among thousands of other flamingos. Chilean flamingos can also communicate using [[preening]] behaviors. Each flamingo spends between 3.5 and 7 hours a day preening their feathers to keep them waterproof and capable of flight.<ref name=":1" />
