    • If you'd like to see ostriches and arent keen to drive all the way to Outdshoorn from Cape Town, go to Cape Point.

    It is about 45 minutes from Cape Town Centre... and can be reached by following the road from the Kommetjie or Simons' Town sides.

    Here they have a few male and female ostriches walking around the national park.

    They are generally found near the waters edge.

    The male has beautiful feathers, a dark black against stark white, and stands tall and proud... the prettier of the two (as things always are in the animal kingdom), and the female is smaller, with greyish brown feathers.

     this looks a real great place to visit - except for the camels. Their only real use is as ciggarettes.    		HORSCHECK Sat Oct 18, 2008 12:18 UTC
     Jenny, fabulous page with brilliant photos. I especially like the nosy ostrichs. Have a lovely weekend.

     This page taught me more about the ostrich than I ever knew before. Interesting stuff.    		alucas Sun Jan 13, 2008 18:16 UTC
