It's an unfertilized egg (so no baby ostriches died, which was my first question) from a curator at the local zoo. I positively love it! It's now sitting happily in it's container on our living room bookshelf with all sorts of other natural curiosities, like coral and rose quartz.

My birthday was this past Monday, and while I was having dinner out with my parents, they gifted me with the most lovely, unique present: An Ostrich Egg!!!
