What adaptations allow a flamingo to survive?

matters how fast you're talking about - in century wise they can change their color, beak shape, drastic changes etc. week by week wise or longer - slight change in diet, fight or flee reaction, or something like a shock collar: punish or reward it when it does something like standing on one leg and eventually it might not do it at all. really matter on how big a change in environment or whether a human or intelligent beings (aliens!!;)!!!) make it. sometimes in a big change in environment flamingos or any animal might not adapt in time and die out like the dinosaurs; they couldn't adapt in time for its environmental disaster.
