Ostrich At The Promised Land Zoo

By Steve Creek • July 29, 2008

The Ostrich is a large flightless bird native to Africa (and formerly the Middle East).
It is distinctive in its appearance, with a long neck and legs and the ability to run at speeds of about 74 km/h (46 mph), the top land speed of any bird.

My name is Steve Creek and I am a photographer from Lavaca, Arkansas. I am always outdoors walking around with a camera so I decided to get serious about taking nature photos while on my adventures. My favorite area to view wildlife is at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas. I also like walking around Wells Lake and the Arkansas River Valley Nature Center. Thank you for visiting my photoblog.
