Year List Ethics (Poll)

Absolutely!
The lyrebird has a different timbre to its voice.
It also helps when the lyrebird runs through its repertoire; the 
likelihood of several birds of various different species all being in 
exactly the same place at the same time is fairly low.
Also you can often tell where the bird call is coming from; that can 
eliminate the possibility of it being a lyrebird. You might also see the 
calling bird in silhouette or only very briefly, but enough to get an 
idea of its size and shape.
Cheers,
Merrilyn
