Lyre!

The Lyre bird. Sounds like a camera, a car alarm, and a chain saw to name just a few.

Seriously...that is amazing! I LOVE watching things like this on TV. I can do it for hours. Thanks for posting.

It's a thread on a bird. Go find 'Politics' for politics.

Yes dear. Sorry for the View attachment 164495

Yes I agree, lets get back to discussing the amazing Lyre Bird, I want one FedExed to me already, I have been denied a koala bear and also denied meerkats, so I am demanding a Lyre Bird or....or....else

I've heard many birds that mimic sound but holy hell the sound of the camera and the auto-advance and the chainsaw, please tell me what female bird could hear that and go ... MEH!?

The Lyre has talent. However, any Southerner here can affirm that a Carolina Mockingbird can match it. I have a Mockingbird in my yard that can mimic any telephone ring, bring in crows and cats, then dive bombs them, barks like a squirrel or a small dog, hoots like an owl and coos like a dove. They love to pester animals and birds.

I take it you grow your own?

Bird must have been listening to a house being built.
