Показать описание
The Bellagio Hotel temporarily shut down their world-famous fountains to accommodate the feathered visitor. The rare bird is a yellow-billed loon. According to the Audubon Society, there are fewer than 10,000 yellow-billed loons in the world. Experts aren’t sure how this usually coastal creature made it to the desert of Nevada. The Nevada Department of Wildlife says biologists safely captured and relocated the loon to a more suitable and remote location.

That’s very cool of them to appreciate this bird and turn off their fountains.

That thumbnail makes me think it looks like some Dark Souls boss being summoned by a portal.

When a near extinct bird lands in the bellagio fountain thats more of an omen.

The loon has great taste. He stayed at a five star hotel. Had a birds eye view of the fountains ⛲👀🤣 what would cost a human 285 a night, costed the loon 0 dollars. Great story 👍🏿

Shout-out to the "plumber" who moved the bird to a better climate

They just dropped it in the most murky polluted pond they could find. Looks like all the fish died too.

This is must a looney swan-duck hybrid. I don’t know how this bird existed.

Wouldn’t you want to relocate it to the coast so it can reproduce and be with its kind

Someone definitely just brought it there and left it

What's looney is that the water used to make this particular visual display for humans wastes away my states precious drinking water!

And they relocated it to a more dangerous place, no one of its kind, and vulnerable to predators!
