Alberts Lyrebird - Male in courtship display
Montane rainforest at The Head, near Wilsons Peak, Queensland/New South Wales border, Australia
Menura alberti
Male Alberts lyrebirds display all winter (breeding season) on rudimentary display mounds consisting of a few trampled sticks or low vines on the montane rainforest floor. Several alternate sites are used but there is usually a favourite used first thing in the morning. The bird stamps, quivers its tail & sings (it is a passerine), with very rich loud song & mimicry of other bird species plus other sounds. This attracts females for mating & declares the territory. Unlike the Superb lyrebird of more southern forests, which has down-curved tail
feathers that lie flat across the birds back when raised, the alberts tail feathers are unswept. When they are raised forward over the birds body in display, the down-curving forms this curious lacy shroud, inside which the bird sings and dances

Albert's Lyrebird: The Ultimate Performer in the Rainforest Symphony!". Get ready to be amazed by this feathered superstar! Meet AU-68-LAW, the male Albert's Lyrebird, who takes courtship displays to a whole new level. In his territory nestled within the lush Montane rainforest at The Head near Wilsons Peak, Queensland/New South Wales border, Australia, he has carefully crafted a simple mat of sticks on the forest floor. Every morning and throughout the day (and sometimes even at night), this charismatic bird puts on an unforgettable show. With his shiny lacework tail quivering in excitement, he stamps his feet and unleashes a rich symphony of songs that will leave you breathless. But wait, there's more! Not only does our talented lyrebird sing beautifully with its own unique voice, but it also mimics other birds with astonishing accuracy. From chirps to whistles and even hisses and buzzes – this avian virtuoso can do it all! It's like having an entire orchestra right in your backyard. So grab your binoculars and get ready for front-row seats to witness nature's most captivating courtship display. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to see AU-68-LAW steal hearts with his stunning plumage and mesmerizing behavior. This is one performance you won't want to miss!
