30 Fabulous Flamingo Memes for Fatigued Folks, With Faded Feathers

Who doesn't like flamingos? How is it even possible not to like a bird whose colors radiate happiness? Who wouldn't smile at seeing an animal that looks like a walking party decoration?

 

But flamingos have another endearing quality, one that sparked a heartwarming trend on social media: A woman named Lindsey Gurk uploaded a video on TikTok, sending a positive and empowering message for struggling parents: Gurk explained that flamingos - both male and female - lose their pink coloring while raising their newborn chicks. This demanding period drains much of their energy and nutrients. But, she said, at some point, they get their color back. And just like the flamingos manage to balance on one leg, jaded parents should keep in mind they're going through this rough period for their "chicks", and like flamingos, will find their balance, and will "get their pink back". Gurk's video went viral and has started a movement. Millions of TikToks and thousands of posts on Instagram have been uploaded on the topic. 

 

The idea of a peaceful, cuddly, powder-scented time after bringing a newborn home is somewhat misleading, as many parents will testify. There are many ways to drain the pink right out of you when you have to calm a screaming child - or more than one - do laundry, cleanings, and try to recharge your career. Knowing that the overwhelming sensation hits upbeat creatures like flamingos is the first step to knowing everything is going to be ok. In the meantime, until your feathers turn pink again, here are some fabulous flamingo memes to scroll through during feeding time.
