Common Ostrich
Open arid and semi-arid habitats including savannas, Sahel, and dry woodlands across Africa.

Male produces a surprisingly deep, resonant booming roar — remarkably lion-like. Also gives whistling and hissing sounds. Females and chicks emit softer grunts and squeaks.
European Robin
Exquisite, melancholic melody of thin whistled phrases, rising and falling softly. Rich, warbling song year-round; both sexes sing. Alarm call is a sharp 'tic-tic-tic'.

Sub-Saharan Africa. Formerly also found in the Middle East and parts of Asia. Farmed worldwide.
European Robin
Europe, western Asia, and parts of North Africa. Northern populations migrate south in winter; western European populations are largely resident.
