The Flamingo Scoop -
sesame street

Fred the Flamingo is visiting Sesame Street for a family reunion and meets Nina, Elmo, and Rudy. Rudy notices that Fred is frowning. Fred explains that it may appear his smile is upside down but it's just because of the way his bill is shaped to help him eat. He also shares that flamingo nests are made of mud. Elmo and Rudy think it would be fun to be a baby flamingo and play in the mud all day. Then Bert comes by to share that flamingos' feathers change color as they get older from white, to gray, then to brown, and to pink. Elmo, Nina, and Rudy wonder how Bert knows so much about flamingos and it's because flamingos and pigeons are distant cousins! They're happy to have met Fred and learn so much about flamingos.

About Sesame Street:

SESAME STREET has garnered more than 100 awards, including 101 Emmys, two Peabodys, four Parents' Choice Awards and an Action for Children's Television Special Achievement Award.

The series delivers academic and social education that prepares kids for grade school.

Since its premiere, the show's base curriculum has been set by academic research on preschoolers.

Encore episodes focus on music and art and how these tools can be used to develop the whole child - the cognitive, social, emotional and physical attributes.

In addition, "Elmo's World," which looks at the world through the eyes of a three-year-old, continues as a featured segment.

Themes include birthdays, pets, teeth, families, games and more.
