The ostrich trainer


A day in the countryside of Mpumalanga. Surrounded by hunderds of big and small birds.
We’re gonna meet the only real ostrich trainer of South Africa. We find out we have common ostrich friends in Australia. The ostrich world is small. No, the world is getting small.

Jamikani with a baby ostrich. The trainer got a huge farm. He will get the script and is going to check out if he can do it. It’s the first time that Joel and his kids see ostriches. Strange that this bird became so familiar to me over the years. But I know it will always be an unpredictable animal.

Joel on the farm. Tomorrow we fly back to Holland.
