Ostriches are magical creatures, and there's just something about them that's so alluring. (To me, at least!) Check out this ranch full of ostriches and emus the next time you're on your way to SoCal.
Ostrichland USA is home to these beautiful, big birds and you can get up-close and personal with them. The birds have been trained to eat out of bowls held by visitors, so they're VERY friendly.
Ostrich chicks are around for viewing and are their tiniest in the summer months.
Located in the Danish-themed town of Solvang, this attraction is a great stop on your way into town or to Southern California. It was also featured on an episode of the Simpsons!
At the gift shop, you can even buy fresh ostrich and emu eggs or just the shell. If you've ever seen these eggs in person, then you know just how giant they are!
