Callie suddenly freezes as a Cassawary stepers out with 3 distinct russels in the bush near him. ''ello little lady! says the Cassawary! I'z headed to Buffy, Fur Face and Kyde's place! I heared dere was another group. Dez about 2km dat way (points with his nose). Dis is a fine camp so mebby dey move here? It's near night so mebby tomorra'? Meantime, 3 little furry (and much shorter than Dad's loft 7ft) step out. Milton meets Pretty Girl, a 2ft tall baby cassawary. Hamish meets Jumper, a slightly taller male baby cassawary. The other bit of bush russles for a moment then runs out a 3rd cassawary named Runner. He's midway sized of Pretty Girl and Jumper. "I'z Pip Squeek, named cause I was the smallest of the boys" he says with a happy grin. Then he reaches down and tries a peach.
