Found another.
It had an oak sapling in it lol

Where are the coords?

Hint time!

Why are flamingos pink?

Flamingos embody the saying "you are what you eat." The pink and reddish colors of a flamingo's feathers come from eating pigments found in algae and invertebrates such as shrimps.

One flamingo seems to have a way different diet than others because its feathers are blue. It was last spotted in around 4000/-7800 and it doesn't seem to stay at one place for more than a few minutes. Bird spotters seem to be rushing to the spot to take a picture of it before it goes away! It will probably be gone in 2 hours.

@Urid

The flamingo in the second picture was already claimed by another player.

Congrats to @Teknomancer for finding the Blue Flamingo!

Hint time!

Lots of flamingos can be found in 5k radius of spawn!

Hint time!

Where does the word "flamingo" come from?

The word "flamingo" comes from the spain and latin word "flamenco" which means fire, and it refers to the bright colour of the bird's feathers.

These flamingos are lit! 3 Fire flamingos have been spotted near 4800/6000, 5000/-6000 and -6000/-2000. Bird spotters suggest that they will be gone in 2 hours! Good luck, hunters.

Congrats to @Argail and @MaggiAusDaKann for hunting the Fire flamingos!

Urgent!

Another blue flamingo has been spotted in around -15000/-12000. Bird spotters were fascinated by its beautiful blue feathers. It will be gone in 1 hour.

Update: The blue flamingo flew away!

There has s been talk about how much we really invested in this event.

I Have said the team and a few players have donated around 200 DB in value inthe form of diamonds, goods and gear so lets take a quick tally.

1st prize God set (11DB), God apple notch type (min value 10Db and Ive seen higher offers)
god elytra (5Db), 3 shulker chest ( average is 1DB each), beacon (4DB) and a snow golem egg ( 5 to 15 DB it varies so lets say 10DB. So first prize is worth Min 43DB .

With these base numbers its easy to see how we hit 200DB.

We also gave out 20 picks with 10 being god picks worth 3db each, 10 axes with 5 being god axes min. Ii saw 10 bows 5 god, blocks of diamonds 16 stacks of iron ingots, 2 stacks gold blocks, 2 stacks ghast tears, 2 stacks gunpowder 6 stacks of rockets 2 double chests of enchanted books ranging form so-so to top enchants.

Not to mention stacks of concrete, concrete powder, glazed terracotta, shields, banners, netherwart stacks and really that is just a short list of what i saw. I also saw name tags, ink sack stacks.

I hope that helps to explain my claims and encourage you to continue hunting and having fun. We really wanted something that all players could have fun and equal chances to win free prizes.

Thank you all who voted Harvestar as the most like team faction.

Hint time!

Ultra-Rare Black Flamingo Spotted in Cyprus

For one flamingo in Cyprus, black is the new pink.

The bird’s unusual plumage comes from a genetic condition called melanism, which causes excessive pigment to darken feathers. It’s occasionally seen in hawks and ducks, but has only been observed in a greater flamingo once before, in a bird filmed in Israel in 2013.

Seems like this rare bird migrated to CM as it was spotted in around 12000/9000. Bird spotters suggest that this flamingo might have a little bit better loot than the rest!

Congrats to @MaggiAusDaKann and @kinkyboss for hunting the Black Flamingo!

@Cileklim

Urgent!

The Blue Flamingo has been spotted again in around -15000/-14000. Bird spotters suggest that it might have a little bit better loot than the last time!

#4 for me

@RockinRicky2
#4 for me

Confirmed, but the Blue flamingo is still out there!

Hint time!

Flamingo chicks are born with grey and white feathers. They do not turn pink for a year or two. Their beaks are straight, and begin to curve as they grow and mature.

A mother flamingo with her chicks has been spotted! Bird spotters couldn't get near them as the mother was very protective of her childs. They were last seen in X: -10000 Y: ?

The hunter to find these flamingos will get triple the loot and will get to claim 3 flamingos at once! Good luck, hunters. This time, you will need it.

Update: Upon further discussion, we decided to discard this hint as it was too OP for the competition. We aim this event to be as fair as possible. Also, for all hunters that spent time trying to find these ones, we decided to give 10 more hours to everyone!

The event will end in January 18, 10:00AM. You have 13 hours to find them all!

Last hint!

Guys they are everywhere even in Nether and Spawn just go find them lol

@Cileklim

Uhh, didn't it end?

@Aslarina500 I thought so too..?

The post 13 hours ago that said 13 hours remaining is what tipped me off.

Yeah

@Aslarina500 Im at work anyway so challenge over for me.

Like to say thanks to the team that put up this challenge! I had a load of fun in minecraft again! Now I need to build bridges with the misses who didn’t get any attention over the past few days xD

Same here I haven't been able to play because of life... was just checking to see if I won. I found 5 so I think I'm at least in the running! =)

Either way this was a terrific idea and I enjoyed it. Thanks for the hard work. I don't even see how they pulled it off the be honest, 200 flamingos? Amazing!

I'm thinking about doing something similar in the future, but doubt it will be on the same scale.

Harvestar's Flamingo Scavenger Hunt has ended!

Thanks to everyone who participated! We had a lot of fun preparing this event and we hope that all participants enjoyed it as much as we did. We plan on making an even better event in the next few months so stay tuned!

To celebrate the ending of this event, we placed The Mother Flamingo in exactly -10700/-10700. All players that send a screenshot of it to me will get a special prize in the giveaway we plan to make tomorrow.

Winners of the grand prizes will be announced in a few days as we need to check all screenshots and re-confirm all claims.

In 3.5 days, 122 flamingos were found and 78 flamingos remain to be free.
