What I see in my backyard...

I wouldn't think so, peacocks are native to Asia and Lyrebirds are only found here.

How pretty is this

I thought it was cool too and so unexpected! A rare surprise!!

Still looks like a copy cat peacock to me with that spectacular plume he has in the back!! Great pics, Leelai!!

I think I'd fall over backwards if I saw either in my backyard. This morning, I saw a beautiful black Labrador sitting on our patio. Never saw him before, by the time I went out to check on him he was gone. Hope he went home!

My hubby saw this early one morning but kept quiet about it as he didn't think anyone would believe him but then I saw it too!

Wow having a rare non-native animal in your yard must be pretty surprising

They almost certainly were escapees from captivity, so I doubt that they're still there unless they can handle winters that hover slightly above and below the freezing point.

No I wouldn't think so and I would think they would fall prey for other animals as well.

I hope he comes back to visit you all the same. Love Labradors, they are such a loving animal!
