Ostrich Dance



Today I found myself next to an ostrich farm. I did not go too close to the fence because I did not want to scare or antagonize these huge birds, but I did take a few pictures standing a short distance from their fence.

Only one of them approached me. Almost immediately he began to perform side to side movements with his head, crouching down and leaning left-right-left-right. 



I took  photos and apparently that was not the desired response. After a few minutes he turned and walked away.

  5. I would feel intimidated by an ostrich if I was very close to it. Perhaps you're better off with it moving away from you. Great shots of the dance!
