Love the color of their eggs! Thanks for sharing the photo

Facts I didn't know, but interestingly the Emu is considered to be the oldest bird evolutionary by the RAOU, according to my Australian book.

Did you know Emu's brain is the size of their eyes? And also their feet are use as models to create dinosaur feet in most movies that feature them!
