The Ostrich

The Ostrich is an extraordinary bird that flaunts its stuff by showing off its fluffy feathers and long, long legs! It holds the record for being the largest bird on the planet, and you won't spot these buddies flying around because they can't take to the skies! But don’t worry, they cover up for their flightless feature by being the fastest birds on land, and have eyes that are almost as large as tennis balls which gives them a superb field of view!
