Telling us in entrancing detail the story of Theresa’s raising of her chick and of his association with Wanderer. He describes the life history of the Lyrebird and gives an account of its outstanding powers of mimicry.

Side Two lists separately fifteen imitations, ranging even to the barking of a terrier. The record concludes with a recognition test. With four pages of b&w photographs and full descriptions of the recordings.
