Lone adult this morning at the intersection of Mountain Creek Road and
Brindabella Road. It was behaving in a rather odd manner in the middle of
the bitumen road surface - running for a few metres, then sitting down and
rocking from side to side for 20 or 30 seconds, then running again for a few
metres and sitting down again and repeating the rocking. It kept this up for
several minutes until a car came along and it flew off.
