Sorry another 'first thing' post from the picture archive today, nothing really 'gripped my shit' yesterday, as it were and I was otherwise engaged most of the day (see below post & comments)
The image below is quite famous, it's on post cards and everything, but being a tight arsed monkey, I didn't buy one and took my own picture.
(History for non-antipodeans, the sign existed as the Cassowary silhouette, no 'before' and the above was a sign for speed bump. Someone graffited the head / feet on the speed bump and added the before / after. It's so popular it's repainted when it starts to fade )

Apparently Cassowarys have no 'road sense' and so when you are in a Cassowary area you should look out!.
However I think it's they actually got a look at their reflection, I mean c'mon if you looked like this would you want to go on*.
* A study of 140 Cassowary deaths in 2006 , put 55% at vehicle accients, yeah right.

Not the brightest of birds. Why would you evolve to look like that? And a bit vicious, as well, that beak'd take a finger off.
