The ostrich


It may not be universally know that the ostrich is the biggest bird still living on earth nowadays: it may get up to 3 meters of height and 100 kgs of weigh.
When it runs, it's faster than a horse, and with a single step it can take up to 8 meters .









Males are black with white tails, females have gray feathers and dark white tails, while cubs have streaked feathers.

It mainly eats vegetables, but it's used to swallows any object, like stones, fragments of pottery and small irons, and from this habit comes the Italian idiom: "to have a stomach like an ostrich's" (to have a cast-iron stomach)


...what eats



......where they are

 
The ostrich egg is very big and can weight up to 1,5 kg, equal to an omelet for 15 people.
   
Nowadays ostriches can be seen in many countries, among which is Italy , where they are especially breaded for their meat, which is very tasty and contains no cholesterol.
