At the Blue Mountains, after a long day of hiking, we finally saw one! A Lyre bird! This ground dwelling Australian bird is very unique! They mimic natural and artificial sounds they hear through out their environment! They have very unique plumage on their tale feathers as well! Also used for the purpose of attracting a mate! These birds have been known to mimic other birds and even car alarms! We saw a male lyre bird. You could tell by the tale feathers.
