Big birds aye, love how you cann see the size compared to the roo/wallaby. Do you think a bustard would attack a wallaby if it came close to its nest? Just wondering..

Looks like the telephoto lense is playing tricks on us Ed, or are the Bustards cross breeding with the emus? Great birds the Bustard, wish we saw more of them around here.

Trev, a bit of that, but even without the lens trickery this was a big bustard.
Amateur, that's a Agile(or Sandy)Wallaby (Macropus agilis).Lots of them out on the Towncommon.
