Winter storms. Off air 26 hrs. Posts forthcoming.

I had to chuckle at this but it's such a true statement. I've learned a lot from my years in the woods and being able to decipher scat will tell you so much about the habitat around you and all the different critters that inhabit it.

I enjoy reading about your experiences with the emus. Hope all are well!

'being able to decipher scat'

No-emus-present is important too: tracks, feathers in fences, etc.

Let's try to catch up. Here's what put us off-air:

Then we had some bigger gusts. Then the electricity went out for 26 hours.

[Supreme Emu got up the next morning; had a bath out of the rain-waiter barrel on the front verandah, and hitched to town.]

The chicks are a month old. One has done a little 'dawn dance' several times, but we're hoping for mass dawn dancing.

Here is the early plum tree. You can see one blossom. That's spring:

There was a bobtail in the sunshine yesterday. Therefore snakes.

Otherwise, let's assume a state of flux.

For example, Bush and Haystack have a shy bird trailing them about. Couldn't get a decent photo of them this morning. We are now past breeding-season, they what sort of 'unit' are these three?

Undersized Emu was here. She got wheat and a pat. What sort of unit are she and her consort now?
