    The Emu is Australia's tallest native bird, reaching between 1.6 m and 1.9 m when standing erect, and can weigh up to 32kg.
    The Emu can’t fly, but I'm telling you it can run the pants of a kangaroo.
    Well, he was the model for the fifty cents – oom ba da little da da da (Words and Music by John Williamson 1970).

    Coffin Bay, originally Coffin's Bay, is a town at the southern extremity of the Eyre Peninsula, a wheat-growing area of South Australia.
    The town is situated on the western side of the southern tip of Eyre Peninsula about 46 km from Port Lincoln.
    The population swells during holiday seasons to more than 4,000 people due to its proximity to the Coffin Bay National Park.
    Emus abound throughout the area, and speed restrictions are in place in the National Park Coffin Bay.

    Coffin Bay has some of the best Oysters you will ever eat, and we have been eating them since Darwin!
