Woke up at Pilgramunna a couple of years back after what could be described as a rather large night, rubbed the eyes and a quick double take and there were 4 emus wading in the shallows of the ramp. Definite WTF moment.

Wed, 2010-02-24 13:17

this old fat duck would be inside with the a/c like at the moment 38 degrees in Perth and forecast 41 for tomorrow.  Noticed the week end is hot also and got the very  windy logo on.  Would have loved to see the emu on the beach,  good day fishing by the looks

Hi Ya,

A number of years ago saw a similar thing at Hamelin Bay right next to the launch ramp.  Dopey emu was chasing seagulls like it was a dog.

 

Cheers.
