Photobombed: The smiling couple pose for the camera, but the hungry emu has his eye on more treatsSloths do it, seals do it – and now the worldwide craze of animal photobombing has spread all the way to giant Australian native birds.
A hungry emu has photobombed a holidaying couple after they stopped feeding it to pay attention to other animals on the farm they were visiting.
The emu, a flightless bird, was not ready to give up on its meal when the man and his wife instead moved on to pat a llama. The emu popped its head into the photo in an apparent bid to seek out another snack.
The emu is the second largest bird in the world, after the ostrich, reaching up to two metres in height. In the wild they normally eat plants and insects.

We had been feeding it crackers, and it wasn't shy about trying to see if we had any more,' a writer, who claims to be the man in the photo, comments on the website Reddit.
It just happened to stick its face in front of the camera at the right time!'
