This feathered friend that was created by local La Jolla artist Russ Harris, an irresistibly adorable and slightly frazzled ostrich, freshly awakened from the wildest dream party in the savannah, with enormous, expressive eyes that seem to question everything around it and a gaze so intense it could star in its own soap opera.

"Whimsical Condominium Village"
