It's a good job she didn't take the driver captive, refuse to leave the bridge and force a stand-off with the authorities - that would have been a real ostrich crisis.

hmm
how do you catch the ostrich afterwards? And what sort of vehicle might he have tried to smush and ostrich into?? A Yugo? A little SUV?

Quirky....Ostriches can run about 40 miles per hour, can't they?
Or do I have the wrong animal? Ostriches kind of have big butts but then again, J Lo is making it work really well for herself!! That poor thing. Glad it's okay.....Cute story....

They should have named that mooning Ostrich Ariala!   (Forgive me, Ariala, how could I pass up on that one?)    This made me laugh:  "...serious Ostrich Clean-Up in lane one."

Quirks,
As busy as the Golden Gate is, it's a miracle she didn't get hit. I think the farmer should call her Miracle, poor bird!

I heard about this...

apparently they stopped traffic for quite some time as the mooning bird was rounded up and put back in the trailer.  Don't ya wish they had video of it??
