The Laguna de Fuente de Piedra is located near Antequera and next to the town from which it takes its name. It is the largest lagoon in Andalusia and is home to the largest colony of pink flamingos in the entire Iberian Peninsula. Flamingos are already present all year round due to the change in temperature, their presence will depend on the amount of water that the lagoon has. In autumn and winter there will be small groups and from February, if the water level is good, they already come in larger groups of up to 8000 couples who will lay a single egg. And, once these little ones learn to fly (at three months), between August and September, they will leave for Africa.
