A juvenile Cassowary stares right at the camera, giving an entirely different look to the head. Note the individual "feathers" that protrude from near the top of each eye. These are just not visible from the side.Queensland, Australia - August 2007

A juvenile Cassowary in a clearing in Queensland Australia, Aug 2007This bird did not appear to be concerned at all by my presence. I positioned myself somewhat ahead of its path, and eventually it came within 3 meters of me, every once in a while lowering its head to pick at potential food on the ground. See the other image I have for a Cassowary to see how different the head appears when viewed straight on from the front.
