Five Chilean Flamingo chicks hatched recently at Sylvan Heights Waterfowl Park.  The flamingo eggs arrived as a donation from Zoo Atlanta in June, and park staff placed the eggs in the nests of breeding pairs of Lesser Flamingos.  The Lesser Flamingos hatched the eggs and are raising the Chilean chicks as their own.  Visitors can watch their antics from the observation deck inside the Park's Flamingo aviary.
