PITTSBURGH (PTTP) — As the home of student journalism at the University of Pittsburgh, the Pitt News covers everything from Pitt players to boisterous birds. This week, that includes the draft prospects of one Kyle Louis and the National Aviary’s Flamingo Fest!
Kyle Louis, a current redshirt junior, has made a name for himself with two standout seasons at Pitt. The linebacker is known for popularizing the “sharks” nickname for Pitt Football’s defense and for being relentless on the field. Now, after attending the 2026 NFL Combine, Louis is being touted as a potential first-round pick. For more, read from Zach Scabilloni in his article “Kyle Louis should be a first-round draft pick.”
In the North Shore of Pittsburgh, another enigma is spreading its wings. The National Aviary hosted its annual Flamingo Fest. At one of the Aviary’s most popular events, attendees can enjoy flamingo feedings, themed activities and crafts, a scavenger hunt, and educational programs, all while dressing up in pink! This is one of multiple events highlighting a specific species in the National Aviary, intended for guests to increase their depth of knowledge. Pitt News Writer Cassie St. John reported on the event in her new article: “Think pink: the National Aviary hosts Flamingo Fest.”
