Editing James's flamingo (section)

=== Flight ===
All flamingo species are capable of flying. The flight feathers are easily distinguished in James's flamingos as they are the only black feathers on the bird.<ref name="seaworld1" /> To begin flying, they run a few steps and then begin to flap their wings. When they want to land, they repeat this process in reverse, and as they touch down to a surface, they continue to run as they decelerate and stop flapping their wings. When [[Bird migration|migrating]] in a flock, flamingos have been observed to fly at speeds of up to {{Convert|60|km/h|disp=flip|abbr=on}}. But they may not reach this speed when traveling shorter distances.<ref>Johnson, A.W., Behn, F., and Millie, W.R. "The South American Flamingos".''The Condor''.60(5), 289-99</ref>
