RE: the lyrical lies of the Australian Lyrebird

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that part of the cassowary personality. Saw a documentary or show or something once about a cassowary that was being rehabbed as a chick. Once she started threatening to kill the keepers, they were confident she would make it in the wild.
Also forgot how pretty they are. Is that Bernie in the post?
Did you get the job??

Sort:  

Yeah pretty...pretty dangerous...

Ummm I do have photos of Bernie on a hardrive somewhere, but in the meantime, this is a male Cassowary and his Chick that I shot- with my video camera... up in the Daintree Rainforest a few years ago...

No Unfortunately I didn't get the job but I'm still applying for more of them!

So pretty!!!!!
I can't remember, I think you are on the opposite side of the seasons as I am, right? But I know spring is always a good time to get your foot in the door for wildlife rescues because they get so many baby critters in and need help.

Yes we are almost in the middle of summer- but it's only just started to get hot here in the last few weeks, so it's a late start to summer and so far down here it's been like a hot, humid, stormy Far North Queensland wet season summer- which is better than being hot and dry tempting bushfires like it did 2019/2020....

True about spring, though our animals need help all the time...careless drivers/selfish farmers/cruel country kids..etc...

But you just triggered an idea so thank you! 😄
