The National Bird of the Bahamas is the Caribbean Flamingo which is native to Great Inagua the southern most island of the Bahamas. Flamingos used to be common in the Bahamas but hunting for their feathers and their eggs nearly led to their extinction on the island. The beautiful pink feathers are not natural but rather the result of a diet of shrimp and other crustacean.
