@ jerramy……”They” didn’t “have” to teach it construction noises. If you bothered to read the video description, you will see that construction was going on near the lyre bird’s enclosure, and it just picked up these noises. The lyre bird was just mimicking it’s surroundings… as it would in the wild. Get educated, and maybe try learning how to read the video description first!
Imagin camping near these birds in the woods..4 in the morning..after the birds just watch a horror movie..so they copy the horror sounds..lmfao you would probly die of fear
Lyrebirds are so cool! I knew they could mimick but not like that! If I knew the one I seen near Sherbrooke Falls, Belgrave could do that I would have taught it swear words. But if you can’t find one it would seem that area surrounding Sherbrooke Falls in Belgrave is teeming with them. but what trips me is that all the other birds in the area like Kookaburras, Magpies & Cockatoos are VERY intelligent up there with the best…
i saw a video of one imitating jim carry nut i couldnt tell if it real or not
Lyrebirds are cool
Because of this bird I now know how disturbed animals are of man made sound.
Wow insane o.O Wow, imagine what else you could teach that bird holy cow. Move over, parrots, this bird has you all owned!
@laurenw7603 … probably, lol. its so funny hearing these birds … and by the way, its cage, not “cadge” … =]
I could imagine people using this genius of nature for all sorts of things…. I wonder if they can imitate human speech… probably.
if you were to put a cd on in his cadge could he play it back ??
This bird is astounding. He’s better than Michael Winslow! Superb lyrebirds are truly the greatest of all passerines.
@NightOfSarrow You mean in real life… right?
WOW that’s amazing and…scary.
These things are epic! I would so love to see one in person! ^.^
