Flamingos sighted in northern Pinellas following Hurricane Idalia

A rare sighting for Tampa Bay - flamingos. The iconic pink birds were spotted in Tarpon Springs and Clearwater Beach, Thursday around 9 a.m.
Researchers believe winds from Hurricane Idalia swept them up as they migrated from Cuba or the Yucatan, carrying them further north than they intended to go.
Residents of the Clearwater Point condominium complex spotted this flock on Clearwater Beach.
