EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Oliver W., the renowned trotting ostrich, at the Florida Ostrich Farm in Jacksonville, Florida, between 1900 and 1910. The image, captured in black and white using a dry plate glass negative, depicts Oliver W. in his prime, proudly trotting alongside a carriage filled with curious passengers. The farm, which was a popular tourist attraction during this era, was known for its unique animal displays and innovative forms of transportation. Oliver W. was an exceptional ostrich who had mastered the art of trotting, a remarkable feat for a bird that is typically known for its fast running speed rather than its ability to trot. The ostrich, with its distinctive long neck and legs, stands out against the backdrop of the rural Florida landscape. The photograph, created by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when agriculture was a significant part of American life, and unique attractions like the Florida Ostrich Farm drew large crowds. This image, now part of the Library of Congress collection, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of both Florida and the United States.
