Kori bustard        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Kori bustards are among the largest of flying birds, at least in terms of mass. They are huge, dignified birds that stride across open country (often with their beaks pointed at a hauty angle). Kori bustards bear a strong resemblance to the closely-related Australian bustard. This individual was in Nairobi National Park, Kenya.
