Drain the flamingo float's water with cyan 50 and repeated dark/cyan batches, then separate the magenta bird, yellow rider, red crest, and helmet.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Fresh-tap cyan 50 into the first slot, exposed dark 35 into the second, and the separate cyan 50 into the third. Tie the first cyan source to 48, 43, and 39; dark 35 to 31 and 27; and the second cyan source to its own 48, 44, and 39 readings.
Continue the water wave with cyan 30, blue 40, cyan 30, blue 30, and another cyan 50.
Add red 32, green 35, cyan 30, blue 30, dark 40, and cyan 30 as the reeds and float base open.
After the flamingo outline appears, fresh-tap magenta 50, purple 35, cyan 50, red 50, orange 45, teal 22, and yellow 50 in that order, waiting when a displayed value is still falling.
Clear the isolated float and bird with charcoal 50, magenta 50, yellow 50, orange 27, teal 22, purple 44, and repeated magenta 50.
Finish with red 22, cyan 4, orange 18, yellow 20, charcoal 50, pale 13, pink 19, and the last yellow 50.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A magenta flamingo float carries a yellow helmeted bird over cyan-blue water, flanked by green reeds and edged with red, charcoal, and white.
Goal: Remove water and reeds, collapse the flamingo, then clear the bird's red crest, yellow helmet/body, white shine, and dark face.
Opening: Fresh cyan 50 fills the first slot and falls through 48, 43, and 39; fresh dark 35 fills the second and later reads 31 and 27; the separate fresh cyan 50 fills the third and has its own 48, 44, and 39 remainder chain.
Danger Zone: Magenta 50, red 32, and yellow nests can occupy slots while repeated cyan and blue are still needed for the waterline.
Mechanics: The picture clears bottom-up from water to float to bird, ending on a tiny helmet, eye, and white-highlight cluster.
