That's Bustard, not buster! A Kori Bustard scans the sky for something flying. It doesn't want to become someone's next meal. Kori Bustards are large birds found across southern Africa, with the exception of woodlands. It has been suggested that they may be the heaviest birds capable of flight in the world. That being said, they spend the overwhelming majority of the time on the ground, and avoid woodlands simply because they need lots of open space to take to the air. On the ground they are generally slow, hesitant, and vigilant. They will run if startled or feel threatened, and take to the air only under extreme provocation. Bustards have only three front toes and no rear toe, that makes is just about impossible for them to perch. During mating season the males will inflate their esophagus to put on a "balloon" display. Kori Bustards let out a bark like call when they are alarmed. In reference to a past post, bustards don't have uropygial glands, but they do have powder down. Lots of interesting Bustard facts can be found at koribustardssp.org/Home_Page.php
