Frankie the flamingo may have been tickled pink when she escaped her wildlife sanctuary in Cornwall but her keepers are worried by her disappearance.
The four-month-old female flamingo managed to take flight on Sunday, despite having her feathers clipped, from the walled garden at Paradise Park near Hayle.
Staff from the park are searching the surrounding area and have responded to nearby sightings of the young bird, who was last seen at the park at 8am on Sunday.
Sightings were reported near Porthtowan – about 13 miles away by road – on Sunday morning and back in Hayle on Sunday afternoon.
