The term "birdbrained" is justified in the case of ostrich who buries its head in sand when there is danger. I have never seen that and so I cannot say if this is true.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Good details on the Ozzy Raj!...

Doesn't seem to care whether it is 'Hen-Pecked' either!

Raj, think it's looking for its spectacles now. Probably buried in the sand while doing an attempt to escape from danger, ☺ .
Good one that makes me smile too. Thanks!

He has a cheeky face.
They are said to be a bit brainless (bird brained) but this one appears quite knowing.
I wonder if anyone ever has seen one bury its head in the sand. It is just something we have known for ever but I for one have never seen any proof. I think that needs to be your mission Raj ! Get a shot of him with his head buried so we may all see it to be correct :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

This is a good close up, I for one have never seen one do that, so the question remains a question mark.? tigs=^..^=

Spectacular details in this Raj - he does look either curious or smug.
