What's with the flamingo?

The winter is living it up and makes us wonder what it did to the Spring. Temperatures may get less cold, but snow has taken over. That's why we decided to help the Spring a little bit. Small gesture, big result. We hope... 

We released one of the flamingos originated in the Caribbean in Luxembourg. Why? Because the flamingos are the avian symbol of summer. Besides, the word "flamingo" comes from the Spanish and Latin word "flamenco" which means fire. So we thought, we're good there. A bird that brings some warmth is exactly what we need. Actually, the fire refers to the red color of the birds' feathers. By the way, did you know that the strenght of the coloration of the flamingo comes from its diet? 

Anyway, after our photoshoot in the snow, we decided to take the flamingo inside and dedicated some space in our office to make it comfortable. On top of that we gave it (and it's a her) a name "Rosa". Ach, what can you do... Now it's summer in the office :-)
