 Plácido Flamingo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plácido Flamingo was an opera-singing flamingo on Sesame Street, mainly appearing in the 1980s.
The only merchandising known to include Plácido were coloring books and videos; no actual toys of him are known to have existed, nor has he been seen in the line of books.
Flamingo's most renowned appearance was arguably during the 25th Anniversary Special, when he sang "Zing Hey!", accompanied by an all-animal orchestra and conducted by "world famous conductor, and very good sport, Seiji Ozawa."

 The YENTA of the Opera!: More than just the Placido Domingo show
I remember being shocked at just how good a singer of Wagner Placido Domingo is when I saw him do Siegmund at the Met in 1997.
