Ostriches

Ostriches are a type of flightless bird. They are native to the continent of Africa and are characterized by the great height, long legs and elongated necks. They are the tallest birds in the world. Ostrich meat is considered to be a delicacy amongst some, owing largely to it's leanness and its taste has been compared to that of beef (not everything can taste like chicken).
