It's wearing a black "witch's hat" and a T-shirt, and it's intensely pink. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Have it make a surprise appearance on a different person's front lawn every morning.

Things to do around town with a 7-foot pink flamingo?
Well that's easy. Save cats from trees.
Or put them in trees.

Of course, you could always prank people. I mean, if the flamingo stands still, people are sure to think its fake.

Or, you could ride around on it like a psycho person. Then again, walking around town with a 7-foot pink flamingo is probably classified as psycho.

Um... The flamingo could do magic tricks.

Sorry... just... throwing things out there. I'm tired and hyper, it tends to add up to silliness.

...
:O

Flamingos are my favourite animal on the planet.

If I had a flamingo that was seven feet tall, I'd probably try and ride it. (Sort of like Chocobos in the Final Fantasy series. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/thumb/a/a4/FFVII-C... )

Or you could use it to commit crimes, I don't know.

Curse it for being so unwieldy probably.
Then I'd start offering to allow people to take pictures with it... for a fee, of course.

Teach it to dance!

I mean... What's not to love about a dancing 7-foot pink flamingo?

Here in Baton Rouge, we have the Spanish Town Mardi Gras parade whose signature is a pink flamingo. Such a tall flamingo could ride in the float hosting the King and Queen of the parade. =)

Give it a yo-yo. All I can see going through my head right now is Fantasia, where they gave a group if flamingos a yo-yo.

Want a twist on it? Give it a Hulla Hoop. Can just see those long legs getting all twisted up in a hulla hoop, taking out garden gnomes, stumbling along putting fear in the hearts of little toddlers.

Walk around town passing by the windows of pubs and bars, making the flamingo's head peer over people's shoulders through windows. Hopefully convince a few people they're hallucinating :D

Let it roam free:

Or let it buy beer:

Or take it bowling:

Except imagine a flamingo instead of a zebra.

I'd have it fly me far, far away to the magical flamingo land it came from, where we will be having tea and biscuits on giant waterlily leaves. We could then strike up conversation about the meaning of life, the universe, and everything, and conclude that is is in fact not 42. This would boggle the flamingo so much that it spontaneously turned into a 7-foot tall silver crane.

Clearly this flamingo is working for the Dade County PD - vice division... or it should be.

Strap a wire under its wing and position a small camera under it's beak. (if these items aren't already in place)

Position the flamingo outside of a suspected drug den and wait. No one will notice a 7 foor flamingo on a lawn in Miami.

I for one am really a fan of just walking around town with it. Who knows what would come of that.

I wish the cabled jumper would move along at a faster pace.
(But I realise other projects have jumped the queue.)

I wish I were a bit slimmer.
(As I think the moss-stitch pattern may add some unwanted bulk to go with the other ‘unwanted bulk’.)

Knowing the flamingo's reputation for profuse dramaticism and winning charisma, it could easily have a career in film-making as an effective Edward Cullen understudy.

Drive around town striking out at the unjust exploitation of the flamingo form in the form of lawn flamingos.

Some see an opportunity for procreation. Some see an opportunity for comedy.

Me? I see an opportunity for vengeance and petty vandalism.

Cheers,
B.

Have you ever seen those street pranks where someone dresses up as, for example, a scarecrow for some sort of autumn promotional display? And then, just as people are walking by him, he LUNGES.

I think you can see where I'm going with this.

Use the flamingo to take over the world and have him be the emperor of the world. That would be AWESOME.

Take the flamingo to the movies and have people yell at him/her for being too tall to see over.
