Wendell at the Ostrich Ranch

I met the most extraordinary creatures when we stopped by Picacho Peak. The had long legs and no ears again... they sure do have some unusual "pups" here in Arizona.

I didn't have pay to get into the ranch (humans do).

The donkeys acted like they might nibble on me. (My mom used to say I could be stubborn as a donkey -- after meeting these guys, I think that's a nice compliment!)

My foster mom Holly wouldn't let me get too near the ostriches, for my own safety.

I was nose to beak with the lorikeets though. They didn't have any ears either!
