Emu Versus Car

Day 23 - Diamantina Development Rd, Channel Country, SWQ

This stupid emu ran alongside the car for what seemed like ages, dodging trees and logs and running up over humps in the ground. Don't know what he was thinking

They are not overly bestowed with brain matter :)

[Connie Little]

Might have thought you were food on wheels.

[Babs]

Probably just having a manic episode.

[Peter]

I suspect he saw the camera and wanted you tho get his best side, great action shot full of detail and colour Terry:)

[Jane Anderson]

So funny! Some birds use this as a distraction to keep harm away from their nests.

[Merrelyn]

Great capture, Terry.

[Laurie E Wilson]

How awesome!

[Diana]

Did you at least beat him 😉

[Denise (lyndemc)]

I am so laughing out loud!!!!! I can just picture the scene between crazy bird and vehicle. Super catch with the camera.

[Helen Sanderson]

well at least with the fence there you knew you wouldn't hit it. They are so very big.

[Suzanne]

Haha, It's just jealous of all the attention the wedgie's got, no one likes to feel left out

[Valerie Chesney]

Great capture, I so like emu's (on the other side of the fence, of course) this happens all the time, I think they must feel challenged to beat you in your car! Super clear shot!

[Tony]

Brilliant shot of that bird at speed.

[Joanna kate]

great action shot

[*lynn]

[BarrieH]

Great shot of this hilarious bird

You've got all the best birds over there. Our here really suck. So ordinary. And from the sounds of it, yours even chase the cars, begging the photographers to take their picture. In-believable.
