Yes. There are two types of bellbirds native to Australia.

Bell Miners (Scientific name Manorina melanohrys) are native to eastern and south-eastern Australia. Although these birds make a classic bell-like sound, they are not true bellbirds.

The Crested Bellbird, also known as the Crested thrush (Scientific name Oreoica gutturalis), is found almost throughout mainland Australia, except for where the Bell miner is found. It is found west of the Great Dividing Range, through the semi-arid and arid interior to the western coast. It is not found in the far north.
