What's going on with those two?

'What's going on with those two?'

Morning, Bio.

Well, the accounts of spazzy dancing here on BYC, and the Youtubes I've seen, don't convey the running part: in the wild, spazzy dancing involves long runs. It usually goes: first, the actual dance, like breast-to-ground-jump-up and whirly twirls. Then often a stretch of running with krazee built in, like jumping up to 'kick at the moon.'
But spazzy dances usually conclude with long fast crazy runs -- and the clip is a snippet of that. I was getting ready to record; heard them coming; and got a few seconds of clumsy footage as they roared past.

And the point is: it's irrelevant that these rothschildis are tame-wild. This is footage of what wild emus do.

I love it! Thank you for the explanation.
No emus near me but I am able to observe a pair of Great Horned owls nesting across the street.

The 'overflow' of interest in birds is a nice part of these threads. Look up 'Red-Tailed Black Cockatoo.' Sighted a group of about thirty down by the river. Biggest group ever.

B was posing a bit yesterday when he was having his evening run-around:

I'm thinking I may name him Phoenix So it would be Phoenix and Lyra.

I'm not sure what you mean, lol. Unless you mean do I have any pictures of Lyra to post? Not right now, she didn't pose well for me. But I do have a cute video of them running around I might post.
