This looks much more like a lyrebird's nest than a raptors. Is it a new nest or one which might have been there for more than a a year but only newly found?

Doesn't look much like a Lyrebird's nest. Here's a photo I took of one just off the Mt McDonald road a couple of winters back. To give an idea of scale, the entrance to the nest was about 150mm across.
