The most photogenic birds

[Mattis]

Emus have always struck me as incredibly beautiful and photogenic. In the right kind of light they look absolutely stunning and when you get their attention it's almost like they are flirting with the camera.

They always look like they are smiling, the males are especially pretty with their blue coloration and their eyes look incredible with great contrast to the rest of their body.

Who said that a long neck can't be sexy?

Nice shots and background. They can give you the stare though (see my avatar).

Thanks! I was lucky, they got very close to me and the light was awesome as well

And sure, they can be creepy. But usually they just seem to be big, fluffy goofballs:
