Cool bird that can mimic any sound it hears

[frsrblch]

Neat little video about a bird that uses sounds from the forest to attract a mate.

LOL, when I read the thread's name I thought it was some kind of toy bird XD.

But that's neat, shows how great nature really is.

Holy ****. That thing is great

Nature shure knows how to do stuff right. I mean imitating a camera and a chainsaw O.O

Once we were going home and we heard our cat meowing. Just meowing her head off. With some searching we thought she was on the roof. It turns out that it was a mockingbird mimicking our cat.

That is not the only bird that can do stuff like that.

I want a bird like that, and i'm gonna make it learn how to mimic the sound of a gatling gun.

Great for keeping burglars off the house.

If your smart you'd know police's siren's are the the most effective for that..

Nice video find.
Sorta shocked at the chainsaw bit...

Just add a speaker phone and that thing is perfect for anything, just needs to be trained, ofcourse.

I say we teach the bird how to sing. Would be better than many of the singers on American Idol.
