Big Bird
Our Life Size Model Ostrich is a great example of the largest living flightless bird. Like its living counterpart, it is distinctive in its appearance, with a long neck and legs.
The distinct standard markings of a dark body, white neck and cream legs on the bird ensure that it stands out.
Flightless birds like ostriches are the easiest to take care of in captivity because not only do they not have to be caged, but obviously cannot suffer from bird flu...
...This fibreglass model has similar requirements ; it has no need to be penned up; and cannot even catch a common cold..... it does however like an audience...

Ruffling Ostrich Feathers
There is a great depth of body to this ostrich model, along with a fine plumage on the tail and strong legs anchored by two rather large feet. It also has individual markings on the various areas of the bird`s body.
The bird is extremely strong and durable.
The realistic model Ostrich is produced in tough fibreglass, and certainly gives the impression of no shrinking violet !

Security and Stability
During production, metal rings or "lugs" are inserted into the mould under each foot. This allows the ostrich to be either bolted, screwed or nailed down to a base if required, as well as being subtley hidden when used in grass.

The Ostrich stands around 190cm high.
