The ostrich is the tallest and heaviest of all birds but their heads are pretty small.
Ostrich can kick with a force mighty enough to kill a lion !!!!!
When danger approaches, an ostrich often lie low to hide, stretching it's neck along the ground.
Its feather colour blend with the colour of the soil where it lives.
It looks like the ostrich is burying its head in the sand.
Many think that this is what ostriches do when they get scared.
But it is a myth. It is an optical illusion.
They dig holes in the sand to use as nests to lay their eggs.
Several times a day, ostrich puts its head in the hole and turns the eggs.
It really does look like the birds are burying their heads on the sand.!!!!!
When they sleep also, they do like this.
