Is an Ostrich a Bird ? I have often wondered this. Really, cuz there is a Lama farm that I drive by every day and even though I know that is not a bird, it makes me think of other strange and interesting creatures. My son too, always tells me about unique animals and he told me one day that the Bird is the only real living relative to the Dinosaur. But I am getting off topic here. It you are like me and want to learn more about the the Bird and thier Feather friends, try Ostrich. com. They even have stuffed animals, which I tend to like, a lot!
