Alectura lathami
This forest dweller with bright red neck and head fits among the flowering begonias. This large black bird is commonly found scratching around in the tropical rainforest. The male has a yellow wattle at the base of its neck.
A male lyrebird was spotted nearby. It has the same habitat but my photo is hardly recognisable

I've added a better feature photo of this handsome bird.
