The Lyre bird

The Lyre bird

Clouds appeared roughly, an ornithologist just searching for the Lyrebird in the South forest of Australia. Walking deeper into the forest he spotted something from the corner of his eyes. And there it was, the Lyre bird just walking among the leaves. Then the ornithologist followed just to get a better look at it and losing track of where he came from.

Entering the bird kingdom in the South of Australia is a Lyrebird standing on a platform to show off his long white feathers to the female. The Lyrebird  has black shiny feathers and black pitch eyes. The Lyre birds can imitate sounds of up to 20 species. It can copy sounds like a car alarm, chain saw noise, camera shutter and a camera motor drive. Such a talented bird.

He was so amazed of what he had discovered about this bird. Then he stopped and wondered where he was. He didn’t have a clue. Until he heard a sound of a camera shutter coming from his right. He run toward it and suddenly he was back on track. He was lucky to find his way back.
