  How long have you had talking ostriches in your neighbourhood?

    It’s quite the phenomenon Peter. After a while southern belles with their upturned noses and pinkies and “bless your heart” smiles begin to look ostrich-like. At least to this midwestern Yankee they do! 😜

    Sometimes I just can’t take the diva-ish sensibilities of southern belle clucking seriously. It helps to imagine them as plucky ostriches or other sassy foul! 😊
