Two men caring for an ostrich at an ostrich farm in California, ca.1900

Photograph of two men caring for an ostrich at an ostrich farm in California, ca.1900. The back of the ostrich can be seen while the head can be seen poking out through the slots in the wooden fence it faces. A man in a nice vest and hat faces the ostrich, handling the long, lightly-colored feathers on the short wing on the left. A second man does the same to the wing on the right and covers his face with the lightly-colored feathers.

该照片拍摄于约1900年，记录了加利福尼亚州某鸵鸟农场内两名男子照料一只鸵鸟的场景。鸵鸟背部朝向镜头，头部从其正对的木栅栏缝隙中探出。一名身着精致马甲与礼帽的男子面向鸵鸟，正打理其左侧短翼上修长的浅色羽毛；第二名男子则正对右侧翅膀进行同样操作，并用这些浅色羽毛遮住了自己的脸部。
