White Emo Emu
While I was out riding this afternoon, I happened across a white Emu. Apparently, white Emus are rare, and this one might be albino. She was happy to pose for a fashion shoot but not happy when a big white dog ran up barking, interrupting our photo session. Ms Emu took no time to show señor Perro how she felt about him butting in on her fashion shoot and promptly pecked him on his butt. Then she chased him into a dugout and came back for more photos.

Funny, unless you were the dog.
The stupid dog just stood looking baffled while the Emu pecked him. He stopped barking, however. Thanks, Brad.
Everyone has a different stimulus/response combo.
That seems to be the case here—a bit of a kinky canine masochist.
That is quite a sighting! Fun clips you made. Maybe not for Perro.
I think Perro kind of like it. Thanks, Michele.
That emu!!! Crazy!!!
It is. Thanks, Leenda.
Wow! Fabulous pictures of a beautiful emu. And she knows how to take care of herself, that’s for sure. Thank you so much.
You are welcome, Gigi.
Emu’s have attitude for sure. Nothing compared to llamas though 😉
I prefer Llamas. Thanks, Couriers.
She sure drove away that poor dog! All he wanted was to share poses but little did he[?] know!
Meantime your wall sunrise is always very artistic.
Silly dog, actually. It shouldn’t butt in on an emo Emu. Thanks, Marina.
The emu shots are amazing…..I love the sunset photograph….Have a great weekend. On Sunday England plays in the Euros final….watch this space….as the country erupts should we win:)
I read England beat The Netheralands. I also read people ate betting on Spain. We shall see. Thanks, Janet.
Yes we beat the Netherlands…(I am a fan of the Dutch) and now we shall see..it will be tight, and exciting. We will know on Sunday.
I hope England wins.
So do 65 million Brits:). I am not a football fan, but for the Euros I am….
I’m not a football fan either, but while living in Spain, we couldn’t avoid it. We arrived in Paris in July 2018, the day of the World Cup final. We were out looking for food, and all the bars and restaurants had people spilling out into the streets while watching the game. We finally found an oriental restaurant that was mostly empty. They had the game on. When France won, everyone went crazy.
Should England win on Sunday – you will hear the madness where you are:)
I’m sure we will.
Emu with attitude! What a diva, I love it!
Definitely. You would think the dog would learn. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim. In my experience, dogs can be a bit slow on the uptake at times.
My morning giggle! Funny watching the dog just stand there.
Cool pictures! And your skies are always so pretty!
You would think the dog would learn Thanks, Nancy.
Remind me not to cross an emu.
They are dangerous with their wicked claws. Thanks, Brad.
My goodness, glad I saved the reading of this till now. It is wonderfully surreal, as are the pics. You are adding to your home here if the white emu stays.
Thanks, Shey. I’,m always looking for new stuff.
Well the emu is lovely.
What??? So emu’s are naturally cruising around in the wild in NM?? I had no idea, and very cool to see an albino emu, love the dog interaction clip! 😂
They are not naturally here, and they are not wild. There was an Emu craze some years ago. I guess this one is left over from the craze. Thanks, Tiffany.
That was a nature lesson I enjoyed, Tim. Thanks.
You’re welcome, Inchie.
Really enjoyed it, Tim.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a white emu. The video clips are quite entertaining. Dog needs to beware.
They are not common. Thanks, Rebecca.
Oh gosh – the albino emu!!!!! What a cutie! She looks so fashionable and I love her expression. The animated GIFS of her and the dog are hilarious! Lastly, I love the sunrise photo of the sun rays hitting the wall. It’s fun to see the unique lighting the sun casts on random objects! ❤️
Thanks, Samantha. I’m happy you enjoyed the Emu and the dog. They were a hoot. I love sun and shadow shapes.
The dog looks properly chastened… 🙂 She is an emu who knows her own mind. A beautiful lass.
The Emu doesn’t mess around. Thanks, Lavinia.
what a strange looking bird: the dog has similar thoughts 🙂
Emus are strange. Did you see the movie Dark Crystal that came out in the 80s? I think the characters were based on Emus. Emus are from Australia. Thanks, John.
I probably did but that was so long ago —-
What a lucky sighting, Timothy. Great pictures.
Thanks, Roberta.
Ha! That’s hysterical about the emu. I always heard they were mean. I’m glad she took a shine to you. Do you remember Rod Hull and Emu? I saw him at a club in 1990s Atlanta. Hugs.
I do not remember Rob Hull and Emu. Cool you got to see him. Thanks, Teagan.
That’s awesome what you’ve done with the short clips! Maybe it’s just me, I want to pat pat pat her back fluff… and kiss her beak. But, she’ll probably peck me for trying either one of those.
Most likely. Thanks, Dawn.
Love the Emu!!!! So elegant and fierce.
Thank you, Tim! xx
You’re welcome, Resa.
I’ve never seen a white emu .. no messing with this bird
Love this! I’ve seen plenty of emus but never a white one. Silly cute dog but maybe he has a thing for big white birds! Very cool pics and videos Tim. 😄
Did you see that in the wild? Not sure I ever seen an emu in the wild and I’ve never actually seen a WHITE one at that. How cool, but no dog should take a peck from an Emu, that’s just wrong ha.
The Emu was fenced in. Dumb dog. What can I say? Thanks, Brian.
