Wild Emus at The Lilly Pilly Tree

Perhaps they are grown chicks from clutches past?

'Perhaps they are grown chicks from clutches past?'

I've been thinking about this, Antique. There are a dozen or twenty emus that a members of the tame-wild club. Some of them get a little less tame while away, but some remain remarkably tame. Felicity walked right up to me for a pat after four-and-a-half years away.

Some academics in Aust are not exactly friendly either. It's all "my reputation is more important than yours"
But sometimes - like in my daughters case - once you get out in the real world, then real world knowledge makes your life easier so you acknowledge and embrace it.
That's what she is doing in Qld.
In Aust the horses are actually "ferals" that got loose, or were released.
We also have lots of feral camels on the edges of the desert here.
Neither of these are near where I am - approx 1000kms north of these lovely emus.

'In Aust the horses are actually "ferals" that got loose, or were released.'
Correct. Horses are not native to Australia

'We also have lots of feral camels on the edges of the desert here.'
You don't have to reveal your location. But it seems you are in Western Australia, and in woodwardi territory.

Chamelauciaum territory.
Where the Red Tailed blacks visit regularly, but the emus keep further in from the coast than my place. Also have resident blue tounge Lizard family, the striped not the bobtail ones. The roos hang round the edges of town, but not close to me as I am within a couple of kms of the coast.
