When Dana’a sister Devan was driving to work on Monday morning, she was met with quite a surprise on the road.

She had to slow down and stop when she spotted an emu on Highway 21, near Florence Town Line.

Devan said she waited for the emu to cross the road so she could continue on to work, but it decided to walk up to her truck window to say hello.

Apparently the owner of the emu was able to catch the bird later that day and bring back home to safety.

Devan was able to snap a couple of photos when she was stopped.

Thanks for sharing!
