The Andean flamingo is a very high altitude vertebrae, living high in the mountains in the summer and for winter they come down to the tropical wetlands, the migration system is a work of art. When they come down to the rainforests during the winter they do not breed, they use this time to find food and survive the cold weather. With their adaptations being webbed feet and scaled legs to help them walk on mud, and filtered feeding beaks to help consume diatoms.
After climate change, human population, and pollution I think the Andean flamingo will change. I think they will get darker in color to blend in and will start breeding during winter due to hotter weathers. Although most adaptations will not change, I think some will.
