Kathy Brown, An Inland Beauty (SINGLE SHOT 2024)

This gorgeous emu chick seemed to strike a pose for me while i sat quietly amongst the mulga trees watching as it wandered through the remote camp under its father's shadow along with its five other siblings. The vibrant red dirt and small white paper daisies provided a stunning backdrop as they peacefully explored the beautiful but harsh environment looking for their food. Captured at Gundabooka National Park, Bourke. North west NSW.
