User's notes

I heard a strange call close to the house, and was astonished to find a lyrebird singing/mimicking on the branch of a casuarina (first time seeing a lyrebird sing - usually just hear them, they are so secretive)! A few trees away was a ringtail possum, which I had also not seen (in real life) before. A very exciting evening! Managed to video both the lyrebird and possum.
