PLUCKED MY FEATHERS: "Any fool can turn a blind eye but who knows what the ostrich sees in the sand."
I think this ostrich feels bad that all of his feathers were plucked just to make the little girl's ballerina dress. He's not a happy camper! LOL

What is the purpose of an ostrich?
Ostriches are raised commercially for their meat, hide and feathers. Ostrich feathers are used for cleaning fine machinery and equipment as well as for decorations and in the fashion industry.

Are ostriches smart?
Ostrich brains are as big as a walnut and smaller than their eyes. They are not particularly intelligent, but with the largest eyeball of any bird, they can see as far as 2.2 miles (3.5 km).

What is unique about ostriches?
The flightless ostrich is the world's largest bird. Ostriches have three stomachs. Unlike all other living birds, the ostrich secretes urine separately from faeces. Ostriches are the fast runners of any birds or other two-legged animal and can sprint at over 70 km/hr, covering up to 5m in a single stride.

What does ostrich with head in sand mean?
Refuse to deal with unpleasant realities, possible dangers, etc. by pretending they do not exist: "Stop burying your head in the sand, Tim. Don't pretend that everything's all right." This phrase refers to the common belief that the ostrich buries its head in the sand when it is in danger.

MY SCRAPBOOK: A lovely with lots of imagination, super comical that will probably make you chuckle! LOL Thanks for looking.
