Do you ever wish you could just be an ostrich and put your head in the sand?
I did until I learned the real reason ostriches do that.
It isn’t because they’re scared.
And it isn’t because they’re avoiders.
It isn’t even because they’re stupid—even though they do have teeny, tiny brains.
Turns out, they don’t really bury their heads in the sand at all.
What they are doing is taking care of the kids in their nests.
It only looks like they’re burying their heads in the sand.
