I went to Lone Pine (in Brissy) for the first time on Thursday and had a ball.
So I thought I'd share some photos.

The first one isn't great but it's funny so I thought I'd include it. I can imagine the Eagle saying "Exit, stage right"

This little guy got stage fright and didn't want to fly to his handler at one stage.

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments. I was able to get pretty close to the wildlife there, was fantastic.
I'm going again next week with a friend and her son. :)

Chris - they are bloody great shots - well done !!!!
That first shot is wonderfully timed - you don't often see such a regal and majestic bird looking, well, goofy ?? :) I love the emu, the owl is beautifully exposed with no blow outs in the white plumage and a gorgeous catchlight in the eye !!

LMAO @ the first one!! Its a classic!!

I also adore the Emu image too... the composition is superb... the side on angle is a pleasant change from all the front on cutesy emu shots that we tend to take normally... really good work... :)
