User's notes
Five or six* juvenile emus actively feeding next to the carpark, all seeming in good health and exhibiting normal behaviour. They were also encountered crossing the road nearby about four hours later.
* I didn't get a whole group shot, so it's possible I'm misremembering the number - five are partially visible in some photos, and I believe there were six.
