Toni Weidman Homes for Sale

Emus are so cool Toni... Thanks for sharing them with us today!

Toni -- I never knew those interesting facts. I remember from seeing them in the zoo that they are very curious birds.  They don't want to miss a trick.

Toni,

The Fuddruckers here had Ostrich burgers for a while. Never tried one though. I always thought it was curiousity killed the cat.

Rich

Toni: Thanks for the history lesson. That one really did not look at all happy. I think they were curious and like you said thought you had a treat for them.

Emus are odd.  I met one in a zoo in Australia last year.  It kept following us around, hoping for a treat.   I like my birds somewhat less agressive!

Toni - They are so cool!!  We have lots of Alpacas here and a few Emus but I haven't had time to photograph them.  Thank you for sharing!

Cyndi

Wow, Toni - I hadn`t seen emu`s (being farmed) outside of Australia - very cool!

Hi Toni, It's nice when you finally can take the pictures you have wanted to take.  Thanks for the info about the Emus.

Like your Christmas border!

Have a great holiday season!

Gloria

John - you're welcome!

Barbara - they are; the two calmer ones came from way back in the field to see what I was up to.

Rich - maybe they ate the cat first.

C & C - I think you're right. The one seemed agitated before I even got near by.

Cyndi - I haven't seen an Alpaca for years. Post some of them.

Karen - I was amazed when I realized what I saw as I drove by.

Gloria - thank you twice. Hope you can have a good Holiday too.

Hi Toni, The Emus are very curious ones. They definitely don't want to miss anything and such fast runners also ~ Great pix!

Thanks for sharing your photographs.  I will have to post more animal pictures on ActiveRain.

Enjoy the holidays!

There is a property up in nearby El Dorado County, which has a number of Emu friends.  When I'm up in the area, I always enjoy stopping along the road to visit:-)

Toni,

I don't know how I missed this post on emus.  I loved reading this one, and learning that the male takes care f the fledglings how nice is that.  And two yolks make twins, that is amazing facts.  You reminded me of the fact that twin cats are very rare.  One of the breeders we took our Lola to had a set of Abby twins, and they were very petite ruddy colored girls. They were beautiful.  A

Sheila - they really are; they trotted from a long way away to see what I was up to.

Roy - i love your wreaths and so to the moment.

Myrl - they do enjoy visiting except for the one.

Alexandra - I had forgotten that about cats. Twins are rare and Abby twins would be delightful.

Toni,  They do look very curious about what you are doing.  I bet they aren't friendly if you get too close.  Very cute.

Toni,  The emus sound fascinating.  Thanks for showing us your photos.

Belinda, I'm sure they aren't friendly if you get too close to them. They made good "watch" birds.

Gary - they were. I was hoping the owners would come out and answer some questions but no-one was around.

Great shots Toni - I have some Emus up the street from me too. 

Debra - they are kind of cute. The other two were just curious; the big one was a little aggressive.
