I'm always irritated if i can't find the corresponding footnote.

Probably this in the end:

"Editor's note October 7, 2016: An earlier version of this article stated that Sara Hallager was the Zoo's keeper of birds; she is the curator."

Which still keeps me wondering why the flamingos?

Zoos with flamingos tend to have a lot of them. I would guess they are hard to tell apart.
