Flamingos' migration in Turkish Mediterranean at risk due to drought

Flamingos migrating along Turkey's Mediterranean and Aeagean coasts are a beautiful sight to watch, but risk losing stops along their route because of severe drought. Seyfe Lake and Acıgöl Lake are two of the locations where water levels have been dropping as a result of extensive water retention policies.

A flock of flamingos were seen in the Çakalburnu Lagoon of western İzmir, one of the two breeding grounds for the birds in Turkey, on Jan. 11.
