I took 'admirable' to mean you admire them for overcoming hardships etc
And there's no 'March of the Ostriches' film.

I'm good at it
When I twig that I'm supposed to be thinking laterally, rather than answering an odd but twee question.

Perhaps what she's trying to ask is
"Is it better to bury one's head in the sand than to waddle around in a large group making "Auk! Auk!" noises?"

This is very close
I was asking if it's better to bury my head in the sand than march grimly and slowly on

Ah, with you now.
And in that case, I'm afraid my answer may also be penguin. (As I am learning quite rapidly at the moment)

Except, according to QI, ostriches don't bury their heads in the sand
They just lower them so they can scan the horizon.

I think laterally half the time
it would be more convenient all of the time.
