Morning performances (I)

I know - this will never happen again and I'd still think this has been a dream if not for some 200 shots I fired this morning, when I came upon a small flock of Superb Lyrebirds foraging in a dense thicket. Actually, only two females were scratching the forest litter, while the three males were singing, dancing and showing off. One male gave up after a while but the other two were so busy with their competition, that they didn't take much notice of that one paparazzo. In fact I had the impression they were performing also for me.
