The Home of an Ostrich Family

by whvcebu - last update: Apr 1, 2005

Ostrich Farm at Vila Alentejo

Ostrich family
Another area of the compound houses an ostrich farm.
Hey - You

Mr. Ostrich

What's up?
Mom scolding me

What is she yelling?

Can't women never be quiet? This hen yelled at me although I was in a far distance behind the fence. But for whatever reason, she did not like me.
Her fault!
Curious?

Neck twisting

Can you see the twist of the neck? Indeed, oustriches are capable of moving their air tube in the neck towards behind. When they fight, they are hitting each other with their strong feet. In order to protect the tubes they are very flexible.

 What a gorgeous place. The photo horses near water is spectacular. Travelogues are really wonderful. Ostrich travelogue was especially interesting. Thanks for such an enlightening visit.
