The Amazing Lyre Bird That Sings Like A Chainsaw!
We all have read it in many books, poems and stories of birds singing in the sky or in the trees. Personally, I have heard these many unique sounds from birds since I was a kid. Singing has always been inclined to birds. But who among the bird kingdom is the best of the most talented singer of them all? Well, meet this Lyre Bird, which can copy the songs of all the other birds around him. He can imitate the sounds of at least 20 different species. And what is so amazing is its ability to copy the sound of a car alarm, camera, and a chainsaw.
A lyrebird is either of two species of ground-dwelling Australian birds, that form the genus, Menura, and the family Menuridae. They are most notable for their superb ability to mimic natural and artificial sounds from their environment. As well as their extraordinary mimicking ability, lyrebirds are notable because of the striking beauty of the male bird’s huge tail when it is fanned out in display; and also because of their courtship display. Lyrebirds have unique plumes of neutral-coloured tailfeathers and are among Australia’s best-known native birds.
