Hi Pete, would I able to use a few snippets of this footage in a video? I will credit you.

Australia doesn't have "brush", we have BUSH. They are a BUSH TURKEY!

I am in favor of them being named the Bush-Turkey. If I'm not mistaken, these ones also do the scratchy giant nest building thing. But I understand not wanting to turn into the "now let's watch THESE birds scratch" channel. Being the humorous presentation on top of professional level wildlife footage from Oceania? Yes!

Yes, thank you! I believe they also do the scratchy nests, but I thought I'd let the scrubfowl have their scratchy moment of glory.
