Entry No. 25 — the Santa Barbara file — filed under: ostriches

OstrichLand USA

A 33-acre roadside farm devoted entirely to two flightless birds — roughly 80 ostriches plus a smaller flock of emus you hand-feed from a bowl at arm's length along Highway 246, amid jerky, eggs, and old-time roadside kitsch.

The move: Buy a feed bowl at the gate, hand-feed the ostriches and emus together (closed-toe shoes recommended — it's dusty), then pick up ostrich jerky or a blown ostrich egg from the shop on your way out.
