The reporter had talked to a biologist who was trying to figure out
where a flock of flamingoes was hiding. A goodly flock of these birds
had apparently been showing up for years in various locations in the
upper San Francisco Bay-Sacramento River area, but no one knew their
origin. As I recall, the biologist had surmised that the birds had a
secluded home base somewhere in the wetlands upriver from the bay.

How does a flock of flamingos hide? That's easy. They just scatter to
various suburban lawns and remained totally motionless. :-)
