    Krasnoyarsk is so not red. Judging from the photograph, they should change the name to B'eloyarsk.

    What a picture.

    Poor ostriches...they look like old Politburo types.

    Looks more like Brokenarse to me, but I DO NOT WANT snow.

    ...from Latin avis ‘bird’ + struthio ‘ostrich’.

    ...so...

    My question (such as it) is:

    if 'ostrich' comes from 'bird'+'ostrich' what kind of ostrich is not a bird? ...and why didn't they just call it an ostrich?

    [NOTE this is not a riddle - I do not have an answer.]

    It's recursive.

    Gnu's Not Ostrich...
