I didn't see a cassowary today.
I thought I might, because I went on a drive and walked around the rainforest at a national park (Mt Hypipamee) about 30 km north of here for a while.
Cassowaries are type of giant, flightless bird, maybe a bit emu-ish. Apparently they are somewhat dangerous (there was a sign that said, "Beware of cassowaries: Do not run" - I guess if you run they will chase you).
The closest I came to seeing a cassowary was a group of German tourists who claimed to have just seen one.
I did see a forest turkey. Some random pictures, below.
