"Great Bustards are among the heaviest flying birds in the world; males have spectacular courtship displays during breeding season."
Camel (Dromedary Camel, Bactrian Camel)
"Camels can survive for long periods without water in deserts; their humps store fat, not water."

"Basilisk lizards are famous for their ability to run across the surface of water for a short distance, earning them the name 'Jesus Christ lizard'."
Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)
"Ospreys are specialized fish-eating raptors, with special adaptations on their feet for gripping fish, and can dive into water from the air to hunt."
