Once my friend who lived in a semi-rural neighborhood complained that the down-the-street emu kept wandering into her yard and scaring her dog. <br /><br />Would love to see them in their native habitat.

Intersing information on how they came to be called Emus. A little confusing that the Dutch named them in Portugese, but hey, life is always a little confusing so I'll just go with the flow. You seem to be taking a lot of little trips these days ... work or play? Or, as I would have it, both!
