# MATING process for # OSTRICHES ! Ostriches perform a complex mating ritual consisting of the # cock alternating wing beats until he attracts a mate, when they will go to the mating area and he will drive away all # intruders . They graze until their behavior is synchronized, then the feeding becomes secondary and the process takes on a ritualistic appearance. The cock will then excitedly flap alternate wings again, and start poking on the ground with his bill. He will then violen tly flap his wings to symbolically clear out a nest in the dirt. Then, while the # hen runs circle around him with lowered wings, he will wind his head in a # spiral motion. She will drop to the ground and he will mount for # copulation . https://www.ssemambotours.com/4-days-kidepo-savannah-wildl…/ # ugandaforbirds # kideponationalpark #Ostriches www.ugandagorillastrekking.com www.ssemambotours.com

If a mother dies or leaves the group, the silver back is usually the one who looks after her abandoned offspring, even allo...
