Emu

I photographed this guy near a remote roadhouse on Cape York Peninsula, far north Queensland, Australia.
He – I say “he” from behaviour – followed me around and appeared to be displaying to me! Though a free-ranging bird, I guess he had been raised by humans.

It is hard to tell the sexes, unless you see them with chicks..

Fantastic sight and shot. I have only ever seen them at a distance and nearly drove off the road in excitement!

An elegant stance, an elegant image.

Super shot of this exotic bird - interesting how the feathers descend like a thatched roof V
