Writing: Lyre Bird

Lyre Birds Descriptive Paragraphs 8.3.16

Introduction:
The Lyrebird is an amazing Australian bird. It has black and dark brown feathers and it's tail almost looks like a peacock's. It is mostly known for it's unique talent. Which is imitating everything around it. It can imitate strange noises such as a car alarm going off, and the noise of an construction site. It can also impersonate other birds such as the Kookaburra. The Lyrebird can almost imitate anything in the world like children toys and sounds of a camera taking pictures, and up to today the Lyrebird is still an a extraordinary bird.

Middle:
As I stumbled upon a dark eerie forest, I heard a screeching irritating noise coming from the distance. My curiosity hit me. I needed to know what was making that dreadful noise. I slowly gradually walked into the forest and the noise became louder and louder. As I started to get closer I thought of all the possible creatures that it could be. Maybe it was just a person cutting down some trees, but who would be up at this time cutting down trees?  Or maybe it could be an endangered animal like a Panthera Tiger but there are no Panthera Tigers in my country. I started to get even more closer,to the point when I was standing right behind the creature. I panicked quietly. Not knowing what it was I slowly backed away. I quickly hid behind a tree and crouched down. After I calmed down I hid behind another tree which was closer to the creature so I could get a better look at it. After a few minutes, I realized that I was staring at a Lyre Bird. I was shocked. I thought that I would never ever find a Lyre Bird in my life. I slowly grabbed my camera and took a few pictures. The camera make clicking noises and the Lyre bird heard it. Before I knew it, he was imitating the noise of the camera taking pictures. I was amazed.


Now I have found what I was looking for,  I decided to leave the bird in peace. So I walked away and headed back home. I hopped on the car and drove off. Hopefully next time I come to this forest, I will be able to spot the extraordinary Lyrebird once again.
