Rhea (bird) ...
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rheas, also known as Nandu, ñandúes in Spanish, or ema in Portuguese, are two species of flightless ratite birds native to South America – the greater or American rhea and the lesser or Darwin's rhea. The name was given in 1752 by Paul Mohring; his reason for choosing this name, from the Rhea of classical mythology, is not known.

Description and biology

Rheas are large, flightless birds with grey-brown plumage, long legs, and long necks. They have large wings, which they spread while running, to act like sails. Unlike most bird, rheas have only three toes; this is probably an adaptation to allow faster running. They are omnivorous, preferring broad-leafed plants, but also eating seeds, roots, fruit, insects, and small vertebrates.
