Looks like a case for Sheriff Dan Rhodes. Thanks to Art Scott for the link.
The Golf Channel - PGA, LPGA, Champions, European Tour, Nationwide, Canadian Tour &: "ELMA, Wash. -- Every golfer likes a birdie, even more so an eagle. But an emu?
The big bird that showed up Tuesday at Oaksridge Golf Course was another matter, at least for Sue McMeekin of Satsop and Les Bell of Montesano.
The flightless bird, second in size among avians to the ostrich, followed the pair for seven of their nine holes, watching each swing and sometimes walking between them or standing directly in front of them. The emu seemed to take special interest in McMeekin's red fleece jacket.
'It was strange,' McMeekin said. 'She's awful big and she made me nervous.'
Emus, natives of Australia, can grow to more than 5 feet and 100 pounds and are capable of running as fast as 30 mph."

probly thought they were hitting one of her eggs around. emus arent QUITE as stupid as bush but they're in the ballpark.
OOP or not, this one deserved a scan of Murder Most Fowl.
Didn't I send you this about a week ago?
Benjie, I should've done a scan.
Jeff, I can't remember. If you did, I should've used it then.
"Murder Most Fowl" I know I read it, but I cannot seem to recall it. Maybe that's the one where Rhodes gets beat up by a grouchy farmer.
Or an emu.
Either way he is sure to get beat up The recuperative powers of Dr. Pepper are a wonder, but the man needs to be more careful.
