    Emu? Ostrich? A face only a mother could love? What the heck IS that?

    A brave closeup. Were you attacked right after clicking the shutter?

    He was actually behind a low fence, but he could've leaned over and pecked me. Good thing I was quick ;-).

    Really great photo. I'm surprised that there seems to be so much --intelligence? feeling? curiosity?-- in his or her eyes.

    I'm glad you told us what this "lovely" bird is. Actually, it's kind of "cute" in a weird way.

    Great shot but I don't think I could have gotten too close to an emu. I am bit afraid of birds that can beat me in a fight.

    Seems like this Emu was posing for your camera knowing you'd make it famous.
    Hugs and blessings,

    Great shot. I wish I had eyelashes like that.

    However, I don't like emus. Once, I visited a farm that had some. One started "dancing" with me. The owner told me not to dance back, because it was a "mating" dance. Luckily, there was a fence between the amorous emu and me...
