I thought about making this costume in October, but I didn't get around to making it until recently--just for fun.

Many years ago when I was only young(ish) I made a (Bernie Cliften) Ostrich.This was the one where th bird seems to have a jockey riding on it. It was built ofChicken Wire and Glassfibre chopped stand mat soaked in resin. and covered with Yellow fur fabric. This was used for Fund Raising for Charity. I once did a 1/2 Marathon in it and it just about 'Killed me' as it was in a hilly area. I was able to carry bucket to collect money for the charity. Even had Yellow ladies tights to get the right colour legs!
