Courting display

The Superb Lyrebird is a pheasant-sized songbird, measuring approximately 100 cm long and weighing around 1 kg, with brown upper body plumage, grayish-brown below, rounded wings and strong legs. Among all extant songbirds only the Common and Thick-billed Ravens regularly outweigh it and only the much more slender Black Sicklebill can rival its length.
