Ostrich kindergarten
Very picturesque, almost uninhabited areas of Damaraland near the riverbed of periodic River Huab in Namibia. On these yellow plains you can spot lions, elephants, antelopes and even extremely numerous flocks of ostriches. The group of ostriches in the photo, is unusually large (about 100 birds). It’s called ostrich kindergarten which is a group of chicks which an adult is taking care of and supervising.
