I see a tall dark stranger

My wife had an unnerving experience recently when driving home from work. We live in the country, so we're used to seeing wallabies wandering all over the roads, but never anything like this.

She was driving down the street, when she was aware of this tall, dark presence in her rear view mirror. She was travelling at about twenty miles an hour, so she figured it would have to be a pretty fit athlete to be keeping up with her.

Then, the next thing she knew, he OVERTOOK her and raced off into the bush! Not a curly-headed man in a track suit, but an emu out for his evening jog!

Now we've seen everything (or at least she has, because I wasn't there). Ain't nature grand?
