Fondly recalling how lucky I was to be granted a private tour of Ireland's Natural History Museum in 2024 by its astute Keeper, @paoloviscardi.bsky.social, while the museum underwent renovations. I look so forward to visiting it again now it has re-opened to the public. 😍 #ElephantBird #Madagascar

Moa are #ratites, a group of flightless birds that include living emus, cassowaries & ostriches. It also includes the extinct #ElephantBird of Madagascar, which rivals the #Moa for the title of largest known bird. The Elephant bird is the heaviest known bird, while the Moa is the tallest.

To those that celebrate it, have a Happy Easter!
Context: A Norman Knight sings praises to the heavens, as he paints the BIGGEST easter egg of 'em all... for it is one from an elephant bird.
A reference to how the birds only went extinct around 800-1100 AD/CE.
