Ostrich
by: Dylan T
what are some features about them?:A ostrich is a very fast land bird that has many interesting facts that you might not have known of. First, i bet you didnt know that they can get as tall as 9 feet! (because of their long necks). They can weigh up to 290 punds! They are a native to Africa and they run across the savannas at speeds up to 45 mph! Their long, strong necks necks help them run faster and faster. They have the top land speed of any bird. If they are threatend they will lay flat on the ground or the will run away.
how do they live and look like?: A ostrich is the largest living species of any bird and lay some what the lrgest bird eggs! They live in groups of 5 to 50! They all eat plant matter or insects. If they get cornered they will kick with their powerful legs. The feathers of males are usually black with white sections and a white tail. The females usually have brown feathers with some white ones. Their necks are mostly bare, with layers of skin. Their eyes are two inches around and are used to see predators from far away.

Pretty good. Your descrription could be better organized and more complete. Your last picture looks like and Emu rather than an Osterich.
