Description

When: August 29, 2020

Where: Dierenpark Zie-ZOO Volkel, The Netherlands

Some ainmals are somewhat overlooked by photographers unless they do something fun, or sit in a pretty place.

We are guilty of this too, I must admit. But we do make up for it sometimes, like this instance where I took the opportunity to photograph this Rhea

Species: Greater Rhea (Nandoe)

Latin name: Rhea Americana

Originates from South America.

Current status: Near Threatened

Did you know:

…The Greater Rhea evades contact with enemies by running away.

…Though it closely resembles an Ostrich, they’re different in size and weight, but also, the Greater Rhea has three toes instead of two, and both sexes are alike.
