Ostriches Host Yearly Gathering!

[Michael Alexander]

Whilst driving to the beach in the pounding sandstorm yesterday, we chanced apon a group of flightless birds...... I have lived here for almost 40 years and have never seen so many ostriches in one place....... you usually get them in groups of 3 or 4..... Michele counted as far as 45 of them...... I can only assume the sandstorm drove them out of the sands or they were hosting the Annual Ostrich Open at the Golf COurse....

No wonder I haven't seen any flying over me house.  Can't start drinking till the ostrich flies by.

There were gazillions in January too. Mrs took pics of them near the riding club, had to wait for them to cross the tar road.

Hello .. Oranjemund is an oasis  and yes the " wildlife"   as in the Gemsbock  and jackal  that now casually stroll around.. the  ostrich  getting to the   gist of it .. tookmlonger cos they got smaller brains ..   

[Michael Alexander]

I wonder what they are up to?   

[SandyB]

Planning to take over the empty houses ??

[Mike Voden (RIP)]

No, waiting for the flock to get bigger then fly into Diana's garden.

[Alfred Boehme]

Just picture it if ostrich's could fly

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

They do fly.....I seen them. 

[Bertie Horak]

Be careful, I've seen their droppings - if they fly over.... instead of leaving a smudge they will take the whole windscreen out!!!
