We have two emus and they sure are funny birds!
Our son is about the same heighth as them and so maybe they don’t feel threatened by him….. they let him stand by them, pet them and get up close and personal. My husband says they run away or try to chase him when HE is in their pen.
Maybe Kaleb is the emu whiperer…

So funny. I would run before any whispering could be done.
