Went birding near sunset in the North Woods, Centr Went birding near sunset in the North Woods, Central Park. To say the birds were sparse would be an overstatement but the light was beautiful and I did see this female mallard enjoying some of the sun's late-day light. #mallard #birdphotography #centralpark #duck
Today is World Ostrich Day! I bet you didn’t kn Today is World Ostrich Day!

I bet you didn’t know that today was World Ostrich Day! That’s right, today doesn’t belong entirely to the esteemed Punxsutawney Phil!

Why today you say? Well, ostrich only have two toes per foot. So, naturally the second of February should be World Ostrich Day!

While Phil might grab all the headlines for his ability to predict the arrival of spring, ostrich are no less remarkable. Living in Central and Southern Africa, they are the largest birds in the world.

They are also flightless. Yes, ostrich cannot fly but they can easily outrun Usain Bolt with a top speed of 43 miles per hour! That’s as fast as a Zebra.

I titled the photo below, "Order in the Court!". It was taken in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, 2019. To this day I to wonder what those four ostrich were discussing out on the horizon. Do you have a caption?
