The lyre Bird.

The largest and handsomest Of all
the song birds Is the Tyre bird. Its home
is in Australia. where its song Is heard
morning and evening. II is heard
oftencr in winter than in summer.
The chief beauty of the Tyre bird Is in
the plumage of its tail. which Is eie-
CANT and In the form Of an ancient
Tyre While singing the Tyre bird
spreads Its tail over its head like a
peacock and droops Its wings to the
ground This bird is not only fine
songster. but can initiate the songs Of
NIL birds. One living near wood
sawyer's hut even initiated the sound
of the fling of saws. The Growing Of
cocks, the cackling OF hens. the bark
ing OF dogs and the mewing OF cats
are within Its range. Its own song Is
also different from that OF other birds.
