22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Flamingos sleeping on a tiny island

Collectively, every single flamingo in this zoo enclosure is asleep,k one head and one leg missing from each body, curled up within their feathers. They are oblivious to the noisy ruckus outside their aquatic bubble, because they like protecting their peace.
