Looks like a soggy kookaburra to me. Must’ve been bathing in the puddle.

Fair call Darcy, thanks - we do have Coastal Emus here but we also have numerous kookaburras!

Doesn't look like an emu to me, Emus have thin wispy feathers, that looks quite different to those of most other birds. This looks more like a the rear end of a bird in flight, I believe I can see the curve of the left wing, and the barred underside of a tail. Not sure if I can make out blue on the wing, hard to tell with the shadow, but maybe a kookaburra?
