A fun roadside attraction near the KOA we were staying at was Rooster Cogburn Ostrich Ranch, a petting zoo and ostrich farm:
They have a variety of animals to see, pet, and feed. They provide a cup of food, and instructions for each area.
First up was donkeys:

Goats:
We couldn’t feed the rabbits, as they were full, but we could still look at them:
Ducks:
We never hand-fed our own ducks like that, mainly because we wanted to keep them somewhat independent of humans, but it was kinda fun.
Tortoises:
Rainbow Lorikeets:
Stingrays:
Diving ducks:
Finally, the gift shop:
It was a fun place to visit.
