Lyrebird performs at Healesville Sanctuary

This lyrebird unashamedly shows off his incredible mimicry talents. From kookaburra to car alarm, he just goes on and on...
What an amazing creature!

It's amazing that this tiny bird have small body mimic most of the sound he heard.. it's so incredible 😊

[@jkeelsnc]

I think this bird enjoys putting on a show. 😆

[@debrakleid5752]

I never heard of this bird until recently. It’s amazing the sounds he can do.

[@mlbrooks4066]

I half expected him to say "That's all, Folks!" at the end. He really looked like he was performing for the crowd.

[@hearttoheart5282]

Amazing bird. He took many pictures📷of them. 🎀

[@mers3481]

I love its adorable innocent eyes!

[@DeeDeexx]

Bro, even the bird told you to shut up. 😂😂😂 What an amazing creature.

[@nikiTricoteuse]

Wow. Thats probably the longest and most complex song l've heard. I was just thinking it was the first time l've heard one without a car alarm in it and off it went, right on cue.

[@dominickcamry5247]

Wow its a CLASSIC ASTEROID VIDEO GAME--in the flesh! :)))

[@mlbrooks4066]

Someone should teach him to say “Yo, bird!” That would be a genuine bird call.

[@sweetkees]

Amazing and beautiful

[@johnh8615]

Wow he can even do multiple kookaburras laughing at each other in conversation.😳😅

[@ajibolataiwo6851]

what a great performance!

[@Kwelinzito]

I'm not sure why the folks can't remain quiet so we can enjoy this incredible bird.

[@msme2400]

Adorable

[@haloma5544]

Incroyable !

[@omerhasquinto2151]

I really liked it. :)

[@treenelson4063]

At 3:07 it says "shut up".

[@ThatsnewsTV]

Probably at the humans ruining his mating calls! 🤣

[@treenelson4063]

@@ThatsnewsTV LOL 🤣🤣🤣

[@guruswami7096]

I wonder how a single bird makes different sounds like humans

[@jobroberts3531]

Excellent idea abOUT guitar 🎸

[@loukourt1388]

I'm sure i heard it say "Shutup" at the 3:01!!!

[@nikiTricoteuse]

Definitely. I thought it was one of the people watching but is makes more sense that it was the bird.

[@bustermorley8318]

Not content to mimic a single kookaburra but a whole bunch of Kookaburras.

[@masudhassan5358]

It is so cute

[@stevenbaer5849]

Wow this lyre bird is no liar when it comes to different types of sounds?

[@Lu-KN]

That blaster sound 1:19 ... is is some Star Wars blaster or what?

[@thisisntmyrealname9388]

Play a guitar in front of one of them.... That'd be cool to see if it replied.

[@jmen4ever257]

Or a stradavarius!

[@dwimk3222]

Kepingin punya burung ini....

[@johnjohn7549]

[@osmarguevara7014]

[@yolandacastano4321]

[@ismailsaydr9800]

[@JoSa-Julia]

Merece o Grammy...Melhor que o Xexéu...kkkkkkkkk

[@gsgs4817]

O.O ❓

🤣👍

[@moritamikamikara3879]

Do all Lyrebirds like the lazer gun sound? Or is it all the same Lyrebird we see in all of the videos?

[@supraJZA80s]

Mostly the same one, they are rare and hard to find in the wild so most are filmed in zoos

[@megsybond]

That's an SLR camera's motor he's mimicking. You can hear the 'click' of the photo being taken in there too. There could be several of them doing it, from all the times they've been photographed.

[@nickpeck4561]

I think the laser is a natural call of lyrebirds.

[@mlbrooks4066]

Did he say “Shut up” at 3:15 or as that some human?

[@mlbrooks4066]

That was the bird.

[@PotatoCheeks]

I love these birds, I wonder if they can be kept as pets.

[@rayjohnson6463]

Why don't these people, specially that kid shut up while he performs!

[@davidscofield4582]

What about a trumbbone or dad

[@davidscofield4582]

Sax

وما من دابة في الأرض و لا طائر يطير بجناحيه إلا أمم أمثالكم، ما فرطنا في الكتاب من شئ. صدق الله العظيم. هذا خلق الله، فاروني ماذا خلق الذين من دونه؟

Next time, when your entire purpose for recording the animal is to hear it, try SHUTTING THE F UP. It works wonders. ;-)

[@judykraska400]

Why do people always need to chat, can’t be Once quiet. So awful. Poor birds.
